Late actor Surekha Sikri
Surekha Sikri, whose precise and nuanced acting enlivened and elevated Delhi theatre in the 1970s and who delivered a clutch of pitch-perfect performances in films and television, passed away after a heart attack in Mumbai on Friday morning. She was 76.
“She had been suffering from complications arising from a second brain stroke,” the actor s agent Vivek Sidhwani told PTI. The first stroke had occurred in last September.
Whatever the medium, Sikri approached every part with sincerity and sensitivity; her acting always informed by an intense yet elegant aesthetic. One of her three national awards came for ‘Mammo’ (1994), richly deserved for her finely-grained depiction of insecurity and anxiety that the part required. The other two came in Govind Nihalani’s telefilm, ‘Tamas’ (1988) and director Amit Sharma’s ‘Badhaai Ho’ (2018).
