Saeed Jaffrey’s demise big loss to film industry: MP CM
New Delhi: Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan is saddened by the death of veteran actor Saeed Jaffrey, who passed away at the age of 86.
He says losing the star, who brought shine to showbiz with his craft through films likes “Gandhi” and “Shatranj Ke Khilari”, is a big loss to the film industry.
“Sad demise of versatile actor Saeed Jaffrey is a big loss to film industry. For decades, he enthralled us with his class apart acting. #RIP,” Chouhan tweeted.
The news of the death of the Indian-born British actor surfaced on Facebook with a post by his close relative.
Known for roles in movies like “Henna” (1991), “Masoom” (1983) and “Ram Teri Ganga Maili” (1985), Saeed was married to co-actress and travel writer Mehrunima (Madhur Jaffrey), but they parted ways in 1965.
Together they have three daughters Meera, Zia and Sakina – who is also an actress.
Among many honours and awards, Saeed was conferred with the Order of the British Empire for his contributions to drama.
The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
