Shyam Sundar aka Sugreev in Ramayan Passes Away Due to Cancer

We are well aware of Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan making comeback on TV amidst the Coronavirus lowdown. The re-run of the mythological show brought smiles on everyone's faces. The re-run of the show is been loved by the audience and getting a great response. Unfortunately, we have bad news for the viewers of the mythological saga.

Shyam Sundar Kalani, who played the role of Sugreev in the epic saga has passed away.  The actor we hear died on April 6 due to cancer in Kalka. Arun Govil, who was seen as Ram in the 1987 series, took to his Twitter handle to mourn the death of his co-star. Today (April 9, 2020) morning, Arun posted onTwitter,  "Sad to know about the demise of Mr. Shyam Sundar who played the role of Sugreev in Ramanand Sagar’s “Ramayan”... A very fine person and a gentleman. May his soul rest in peace.

Shyam Sundar Kalani's nephew Kamal Madnani in a conversation with a leading newspaper revealed that Shyam had been fighting cancer for a long time.

Ramanand Sagar’s mythological show has Dipika Chikhalia as Sita, Sunil Lahri as Lakshman, Arvind Trivedi as Ravana and Dara Singh as Hanuman.

We hope his family gathers strength to cope up with the loss.

Our heartfelt condolences to the actor's family!
