The Tamil film industry is in a state of
grief following the demise of one of its
most senior artistes. Nagesh, a veteran
with more than 1000 films to his credit,
is one of the most respected and revered
figures in the industry. He had not been
in good health in the recent past. Today
morning, he complained of chest pain and
passed away when he was being taken to the
hospital. He is survived by 3 sons, Anandh
Babu, Ramesh Babu and Rajesh Babu. The final
rites are expected to be performed tomorrow
around noon at Besant Nagar.
His demise has sent a shock not only across
the film industry, but to all the people
who have watched him in movies over the
years. Many names from the film industry
have been pouring in right from the time
the news of his demise was known. CM Kalaignar
Karunanidhi has also expressed his grief
over the death of Nagesh.
Among those who paid their last respects
to Nagesh since morning are Rajinikanth,
Kamal Haasan, Manorama, S.S.Rajendran, Delhi
