The sudden demise of actor Santhosh Nair has plunged the entertainment industry into grief. The actor died in a road accident on Tuesday, May 5, when his car lost control and collided with a lorry. Social media platforms have been flooded with tributes for the versatile actor, who essayed villainous roles and also played the hero's sidekick in several films.
Sreerekha's Heartfelt Tribute
Actress and former Bigg Boss Malayalam contestant Sreerekha has penned an emotional note for the departed soul. She shared screen space with Santhosh in his last movie, Mohiniyattam, and posted a picture of him that she clicked during the film's promotions.
“This is a cherished photo of dear Santosh Ettan that I captured on my phone during a brief break amid the busy promotions of the movie Mohiniyattam. He was immensely happy to receive the audience's heartfelt appreciation and recognition. Isn't that the greatest wish of every artist — to find a place in the hearts of the audience?” she wrote.
“It is hard to believe that Santosh Ettan has left us without waiting to embrace more opportunities and recognition. The last time we met before parting ways, we spoke at length about acting and life experiences. He was someone who loved life deeply. Heartfelt tributes,” Sreerekha added.
