This is really a saddening moment in the Bollywood industry as famous actor and filmmaker Neeraj Vora passes away after suffering from coma for almost one year. It seems that he had been improving recently but suddenly on Friday his health was deteriorating and he was rushed to the hospital in Mumbai on Thursday and that’s where he couldn’t make it and gave up his life breathing his last.
He was just 54-years old and he was battling between life and death. Ashok Pandit who is a dear friend of Neeraj Vora and is also a filmmaker confirmed the news of his demise saying, “Neeraj Vora died today at 3 am in Criti Care hospital in Juhu. He had been in coma and living at Firoz Nadiadwala’s place. When his condition deteriorated in the night, he was taken to the hospital, where he breathed his last.”
Firoz Nadiadwala who is a producer was the one taking care of Neeraj while he was bedridden mourned the loss of his brother and friend. In an interview Nadiadwala said that Neeraj’s health was improving slowly but all of a sudden it started deteriorating on Friday when he was rushed to the hospital.
In an interview Nadiadwala said, “He passed away at 4am on Thursday. I’ve lost the battle to save my brother and friend from the clutches of death. His health had improved so much. But it deteriorated suddenly on Friday. He had to be shifted to hospital. But it was no use. We lost him.”
I am sure you all know him as he was known for his wit and humor and he made everyone laugh with his funny dialoges and often he has also acted in films and not only that he has also written films like Rangeela and Daud. If you have seen the films Akele Hum Akele Tum, Daud, Satya and Welcome Back you would have seen him playing comic roles in that and he has been phenomenal.
All the people including the celebrities and famous personalities are shocked by the news of his death and have sent condolences for him via social media. Even PM Modi has sent his heartfelt condolences to Neeraj Vora remembering him.
It seems that Neeraj had a heart attack and then a stroke in the year 2016 and that’s when he entered into coma. That’s when Firoz Nadiadwala took him to his house and converted his bedroom to an ICU with intensive-care.
We sadly mourn the loss of Neeraj Vora, may his soul rest in peace.
His body will be cremated today at 3pm.

One of the main reasons behind my foray into comedy, saddened to hear about the demise of #NeerajVora a multi-talented man, writer, director, actor…a mini industry by himself, learnt so much from him. RIP
