In a statement given by the actress’ family, they mentioned that Dukakis passed away at her home with her daughter Christina Zorich by her side. “Her brother Apollo Dukakis, her sons, Stefan and Peter Zorich, and four grandchildren thank you for your love and prayers during this difficult time,” the family stated.

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).
