It is with great sadness that my childhood hero, Dara Singh, wrestler, actor, director, parliamentarian, passed away this morning (12th July 2012) at 07:30 am at his Juhu residence in Mumbai. He was born on 19th November 1928. He was 84.
He suffered a cardiac arrest a few days ago and was on a ventilator at the Dirubhai Ambani Hospital.
Respecting his wish, he was moved back to his home where he passed away surrounded by his family and friends.
The last rites will be performed at 14:00 hours Indian Standard Time.
He is survived by his wife and two children.
Dara never lost a fight in the ring. He was the undisputed world champion. A very gentle personality but a towering fighter, he gave all when he was in the ring.
He served the nation in the Rajya Sabha and will be remembered by all who ever saw him fight in the ring.
May he rest in peace.
