Noted Pakistani TV actor Khayyam Sarhadi dies
Veteran actor Khayyam Sarhadi died of cardiac arrest during recording of a TV play in Lahore on Thursday. He was around 61.
He started his career from theatre and later joined Pakistan Radio but he got fame from number of TV plays like “Waris”, “Anokha Ladla”, “Man Chaley Ka Sauda”, “Sooraj Key Saath Saath” and “Deep Sey Deep Jaley”. The actor also performed in three movies including “Dakoo” and “Bobby” but he left the film industry. Since he was educated in England, he could not read Urdu and had to get his dialogues rendered in Roman.
He was son of film producer and lyricist Zia Sarhadi who produced three films “Hum Loag”, “Footpath” and “Awaz” before the partition of the Indian subcontinent.
The actor is survived by his widow and four daughters.
