Parvesh C. Mehra, who produced Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Chamatkar in 1992, has passed away after battling with Covid-19 for almost a month. He breathed his last on Friday evening at a hospital in Mumbai. Mehra, who was 71 years old, is survived by his son and daughter.

Mehra was the eldest son of the late producer FC Mehra and had entered the film business at a young age. He produced a string of films in the 1980s as well as 1990s, including Ashanti, Jaal, Pyar Ke Do Pal, Mujrim, Shikari and Ram Jaane, among others.

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).
