Sudhakar Bokade, who made hits like Saajan, Prahaar and Izzatdaar, left his

heavenly abode at the age of 57 years. The reason was a heart attack on Sunday,

July 7. He was admitted at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in Andheri,

Mumbai.

His daughter Divya said, “Sudhakar Bokade was hospitalized two days ago on July

6 due to a major heart attack. He could not recover and passed away the previous

night i.e. July 7.”

“…Sudhakar Bokade ji was setting up shoots in Fiji, Malaysia. Life is a bitch. RIP,”

said actor Kamaal R Khan.

Bokade produced famous films with actors such as Salman Khan, Madhuri Dixit,

Sanjay Dutt, Nana Patekar and many more. His other hits include Sapne Saajan 

Ke, Kalinga, Dhanwaan and Yeh Pyaar Hi Toh Hai.

Bokade was on the making of a film with Rajeev Khandelwal, being directed by

Kajal Naskar. The greatest blockbuster Saajan was being remade by the director

Lawrence D’Souza.

Sudhakar’s funeral will be held in the afternoon. He left behind two daughters

Divya and Kiran and his son Krishna.
