Leaving his admirers and friends in the film industry shocked, Bollywood filmmaker and comedian Satish Chandra Kaushik died from a sudden heart attack on the way to hospital, actor Anupam Kher informed on Thursday over Twitter. He was 66.

The actor was in Delhi when he suffered a heart attack while travelling in a car in Gurugram. His body will be brought to Mumbai, reports said.

When Satish Kaushik offered to marry single mother Neena Gupta

In her autobiography Sach Kahun Toh, actor Neena Gupta spoke about the man Satish Kaushik was. She wrote that when she as an unmarried woman became pregnant with West Indies cricketer Viv Richards’ child (now famous fashion designer Masaba), Kaushik had offered to her that she pass the child off as his after getting married. 

"Satish Kaushik, such a wonderful friend, called and said, 'Nancy (his nickname for me since college), don't worry. If the child is born with dark skin, you can just say it's mine and we'll get married. Nobody will suspect a thing'" she wrote.

But the actor had "politely" refused the proposal though she got emotional by it.

"I found this offer so sweet that I had tears in my eyes. The fact that he was ready to sacrifice his own chance at true love and happiness for me was very touching but I politely refused," she wrote.
