Veteran actor Arvind Trivedi, who was best known for his role of Raavan in the much-loved Ramayan by Ramanand Sagar, passed away. The actor breathed his last on Tuesday after he suffered a heart attack and a multiple organ failure. Sharing the news, Kaustubh Trivedi, Arvind’s nephew, said, “He was not keeping well for quite some time, but today he suffered a heart attack and that led to multi-organ failure.”

Arvind Trivedi was 82. His last rites took place on Wednesday morning in Mumbai. Apart from his role as Raavan, the actor was also known for his role in Vikram Aur Betaal. Also, he acted in many Gujarati films.

Arvind was a Member of Parliament from 1991 to 1996 from the Sabarkatha constituency.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
