Veteran film, television and stage actor Vikram Gokhale on Saturday died at a city hospital, where he had been undergoing treatment for the past couple of weeks, the hospital authorities said.

Gokhale, 77, was admitted to the Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital here earlier this month following health complications.

His mortal remains will be kept at the Balgandharva Auditorium in the city and the last rites will be performed at the Vaikunth crematorium in the evening, a family friend of the actor said.

Gokhale, an artiste equally at home in theatre, television and movies, acted in several Marathi and Bollywood films, including ‘Agneepath’ (1990), ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’ (2007), ‘Natsamrat’ (2015) and ‘Mission Mangal’ (2019). His latest release is the Marathi film ‘Godavari’.

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).
