Gone suddenly and too early.” Actor Manoj Bajpayee also mourned the loss, writing, “How can this be true Ritz? Why? Such a devastating news to wake up to ! Rest in peace Rituraj my friend! Om Shanti.”
Even actor Varun Dhawan, who shared the screen with Rituraj in ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’, and Sonu Sood expressed their condolences. Arshad Warsi, who shared a building with Rituraj, wrote, “I am so saddened to know that Ritu Raj passed away…lost a friend and a great actor… will miss you brother…”
Rituraj was discharged from the hospital after a stomach infection, but his health deteriorated last night, leading to a fatal heart attack. With a career spanning over three decades, Rituraj’s contributions to the Indian television industry will be remembered by his peers and fans.
