With the death of veteran actor Pran, the Indian film industry has lost a very talented actor and star.
Between the 1950s and 1980s, no successful film could be made in India, without him as a villain or a character artist.
Due to his impressive histrionics he was the most dreaded villain on screen, and yet he still transformed himself into a great character artist.
As a villain he was so feared that for decades no child in India was named Pran!
He acted in over 400 films and show-cased his boundless talent in a range of roles and emotions. He will be missed in Indian cinema.
