ETimes spoke to producer Deepak Mukut, who was backing the Priya Rajvansh biopic. He says, “The Priya Rajvansh biopic was Pradeep da’s dream project. He had worked hard on every aspect of the film. He had already worked out the set designs, costumes and story aspects.”
Sharing an insight on Sarkar’s health issues, Mukut reveals, “He was keeping unwell, with his blood oxygen levels dropping a little, some time ago. His health suffered after COVID.” But Mukut is quick to point out that none of the ailments could hold back Sarkar’s passion and verve for story telling. He says, “Nothing could stop him from his work. He was energetic and charged up on sets. He used to be kicked about his work. Despite being unwell he used to say, ‘main kaam karunga’. He recently shot some commercials and he was perfectly active during the shoots. He used to only lose his energy during the break from work.”
Reacting to Sarkar’s untimely death, Mukut says, “His demise has saddened me. I don’t have words to express my feelings. The film industry has lost an extremely talented and good-hearted person.”
