Earlier, reports had suggested that Tiku had suffered a heart attack. However, his wife denied these claims, clarifying that it was, in fact, a brain stroke. The 70-year-old actor’s wife, Deepti Talsania, spoke to NDTV and said, “He suffered a brain stroke, not a heart attack. He had gone to attend a film screening and started feeling unwell around 8 pm. He was immediately admitted to the hospital.”
Tiku is best known for his roles in popular films such as Cirkus, Hungama, Special 26, Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobaara!, Dhamaal, Dhol, Phir Hera Pheri, Rishtey, and Devdas, among others.Shikha
