Veteran actor Yusuf Husain has passed away due to Covid-19 complications. He was 73. Filmmaker Hansal Mehta confirmed the death of his father-in-law to indianexpress.com. Husain was admitted to Lilavati hospital in Mumbai.
Mourning Husain’s demise, Hansal, posted a tribute note on Twitter, “I had completed 2 schedules of Shahid. And we were stuck. I was troubled. A non-existent career as a filmmaker was almost finished completely. He just came up to me and said I have a fixed deposit and it is of no use to me if you are so troubled. He wrote a cheque. Shahid was completed. That was Yusuf Husain. Not my father-in-law but a father. He was life if life itself had to have a physical form.”
RIP Yusuf Husain. pic.twitter.com/laP0b1U732

And then to end with a booming ‘love you love you love you’. Yusuf Saab I owe this new life to you. I am truly orphaned today. Life will never be the same. I will miss you terribly. My Urdu will remain broken. And yes – love you love you love you!”
