Shammi Kapoor passes away

Veteran actor Shammi Kapoor passed away today (Aug 14) morning. His health went down severely last week and he was admitted at Breach Candy hospital where he was on ventilator support. Kapoor was suffering from chronic renal failure. He was 79.

Shammi Kapoor was one of the biggest and most favourite stars of the 1950s and 1960s known mainly for his romantic films like Junglee, Tumsa Nahin Dekha, Dil Deke Dekho, Professor, Kashmir Ki Kali, An Evening In Paris, Brahmachari, Tum Se Achcha Kaun Hai and many more.

Shammi Kapoor was known for his unique style and high energy. He was also undoubtedly one of the best dancers of his generation and brilliant comic timing which can be witnessed in most of his films.

The veteran actor recently shot with his grand-nephew, Ranbir Kapoor, for the latter’s upcoming film Rockstar.

With the death of Shammi Kapoor, Bollywood has lost a gem today and the ‘Yahoo’ star will be missed by millions.
