Prime Minister Narendra Modi mourns the loss of Dwarakish, a stalwart of Kannada cinema, whose legacy leaves an indelible mark on the industry.
Dwarakish, born on August 19, 1942, in Ittigegud, Mysore, embarked on a remarkable journey from a mechanical engineer to an iconic figure in the film world. His passion for acting led him to leave behind a successful automotive spare parts business and pursue his dreams in cinema.
PM Modi acknowledges Dwarakish’s immense contributions to the film industry, spanning decades of unforgettable performances and groundbreaking films. His ability to captivate audiences and support young talent reflected his multifaceted role in shaping Kannada cinema.
Dwarakish’s passing, at the age of 81, marks the end of an era in Kannada cinema. Modi extends heartfelt condolences to his family and admirers, recognizing the void left by his departure.
As the nation mourns the loss of a beloved icon, Dwarakish’s extraordinary journey serves as an inspiration for aspiring actors and filmmakers. His legacy of cinematic excellence and dedication to the art form will continue to resonate in the hearts of audiences for generations to come. Om Shanti.
