Well-known Tamil cinema actor Mayilsamy died here early on Sunday, the Nadigar Sangam (SIAA) said.

The 57-year-old comedian suffered a heart attack in the small hours of Sunday, the Artistes association said in a tweet.

Mayilsamy has acted in over 100 films, including those starring top actors Ajith Kumar, Vijay and Kamal Haasan.

He has appeared in TV debates also. Several fellow actors condoled the demise of Mayilsamy.

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).
