What is your favorite Om Puri show?
I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone who’s seen and loved movies #OmPuri Performance. Mine is his Ahuja #JaaneBhiDoYaaro. Half the truth is that Anant Velankar has no guilt. Long before we had Irfan and Nawazuddin, we had Om Puri. What an absolute genius! pic.twitter.com/0nH6K46c1a

Om Puri’s absence on the big and small screen is deeply felt and it’s hard to think of a name that matches his acting talent. He was a world famous actor and Bollywood was lucky to have a gem like him. Om Puri, the name that defines the word ‘legend’.
