Bhubaneswar: A day after declaring him dead, Wikipedia on Friday rectified the misinformation about veteran Odia actor Mihir Das.

The Ollywood fraternity was miffed with the free online encyclopedia, on Thursday, after it mentioned that the actor died on December 14, 2021, due to kidney failure, while he was still undergoing treatment at a private hospital in Cuttack.

Earlier speaking to the media, general secretary of Odisha Cine Artistes Association Sritam Das said that the actor’s family or the association should have been contacted before publishing such information. “The page does not even provide correct information about actors’ birthday,” he added.

Citing the latest medical reports, Sritam said that Das’ condition is stable and urged his fans to pray for his speedy recovery.

Notably, the veteran actor has been undergoing treatment for kidney-related ailments since December 7. He was put on ventilator support two days later after his condition became critical.

On December 10, his son Amlan Das had informed the media that he was responding well to the treatment.

In his career spanning over three decades, he has won the Best Actor award from the state government for his performance in Laxmi Protima in 1998 and Pheria Mo Suna Bhauni in 2005. However, it was Pua Mora Bholashankar, which propelled him to stardom.

He also received the Best Comedian award for Mu Tate Love Karuchi in 2007 and Best Supporting Actor award for Prema Adhei Akhyara in 2010. He played the antagonist in 2009 Abhimanyu.
