Mumbai: Denied a bed by Mumbai’s top hospitals Lilavati and Hinduja after he complained of breathlessness, veteran Bollywood producer Anil Suri was then rushed to Advanced Multispeciality Hospital on Wednesday night. A day later, Suri passed away.
“He was rushed to Lilavati and Hinduja, but both denied him a bed. He was then taken to Advanced Multispeciality Hospital on Wednesday night. He had contracted COVID-19. On Thursday evening, they said something was amiss and he was put on ventilator. He died around 7 pm,” Anil’s brother Rajiv Suri was quoted as saying by PTI.
The last rites of the 77-year-old Anil, who produced films like ‘Karmayogi’ and ‘Raaj Tilak’, were held at Oshiwara cremation ground on Friday morning, in the presence of close family members.
Anil is survived by his wife and two children.
