Veteran actor and screenwriter Kader Khan, who died on January 1, was buried at a cemetery in Canada. Photos from Kader Khan’s funeral ceremony held in Mississauga were shared on social media. The actor passed away at the age of 81 in a hospital in Toronto. Kader Khan’s son Sarfaraz Khan had earlier shared that the the actor will be buried in a Canadian cemetery. Khan died after a prolonged illness. Meanwhile, upon Khan’s passing, Bollywood actor Govinda said that the actor was like a father-figure to him but Sarfaraz reacted on this statement. He implied that the actor had not even called the family once ever since Kader Khan passed away. In an interview with IANS, Sarfaraz said, “Please ask Govinda how many times he inquired about his ‘father figure’s’ health. Has he even bothered to call us even once after my father’s passing away? This is the way our film industry has become. There are no real feelings for those who have contributed to Indian cinema when they’re no longer active.” Govinda and Kader Khan had collaborated on films like Haseena Maan Jayegi, Coolie No 1, Hero No 1, Dulhe Raja among many others. Govinda had earlier told indianexpress.com, “Kader Khan sir is no more with us. He was not just a mentor but also a father figure to me. He had such finesse that whichever artiste he worked with or collaborated with, became a star, in fact a superstar. The entire film industry and my family cannot express the loss in words. I pray to God to grant peace to his soul, and may he find a place in heaven.” Published in Daily Times, January 4th 2019.
