Mumbai: Veteran actor Anupam Shyam, who is known for playing Thakur Sajjan Singh in the show Mann Kee Awaaz Pratigya 2, died on August 8 at the age of 63. He was hospitalised a few days ago for kidney-related issues and was in the Intensive Care Unit and on a ventilator for a couple of days. He died at 8 pm at Life Line Hospital, due to multiple organ failure.

Last year in March, the actor was hospitalised after he developed serious kidney-related issues. His brother also appealed for monetary help as they were struggling to pay the hospital bills. After the actor recovered, he had to undergo dialysis on a regular basis. He resumed work this year when Mann Kee Awaaz season 2 released. As per TOI report, he used to complete his shoot and then go for his dialysis.

Speaking to Spotboye, his brother talked about Anupam’s health and said that he has been keeping unwell for the last six months. He had got an infection in his kidney due to which he was admitted to Hinduja hospital and he was treated for almost one and a half months. He was quoted as saying, “He has been keeping unwell for the last six months now. He has an infection in his kidney due to which we had admitted him to Hinduja Hospital back then and got him treated for almost one and a half month. That time his health got fine but he has suggested dialysis, from time to time. But he decided to go for ayurvedic treatment as dialysis costs a lot. That didn’t help. He got breathless recently because of not doing dialysis. His chest was filled with water, so we again started his dialysis and he started getting relief.

In an interview, he had said that he was not in good health when he took up the show Pratigya 2. He was quoted as saying, “Zindagi ki jung ladh raha tha, wahan se aa gaye hain ab. Now with the show Pratigya I want to entertain the audience again.”

Anupam is known for his negative role of Thakur Sajjan Singh in the TV show aired in 2009.
