Mirzapur Actor Brahma Mishra Passed Away, Aged 36
New Delhi: Actor Brahma Mishra passed away in his Versova flat in Mumbai under unknown circumstances. He was 36 years old.
According to neighbours, Mishra complained of chest pain on November 29, but the doctor handed him medicines for flatulence instead. Though neighbours thought he died 2-3 days ago, they informed the police when the house smelt of decay.
The police found the semi-decomposed body of the actor on Thursday and sent it to Dr. Cooper Hospital for autopsy. An officer said, “We broke into the locked house and found the late actor in the toilet.”
“The body was immediately sent to Cooper Hospital for autopsy after completing the panchnama,” he added. The cause of his death is unknown.
Senior Inspector at Versova Police Station, Siraj Inamdaar, said, “We have registered an Accidental Death Report (ADR). Since reports confirmed no injuries or marks on Mishra’s body, we suspect heart attack to be the cause of death, but we are not going to take any decision from our side until we see the post-mortem report.”
Several celebrities paid tribute to the late actor through social media. Co-actor Divyendu Sharma confirmed the news of the demise on Instagram and wrote, “RIP Brahma Mishra. Our Lalit is no more. Let’s pray for him, everyone.” Excel Entertainment also expressed grief over the actor’s untimely demise.
Brahma Mishra is known for his role in films Manjhi: The Mountain Man, Dangal, and Kesari. However, he achieved widespread recognition through his character of Lalit in the popular web series Mirzapur 2.
