Veteran actress Manorama passes away

One would remember yesteryears' actress Manorama by her overstated eyelashes and expressions. She could easily be recollected by her prominent negative characters in films like Seeta Aur Geeta, Ek Phool Do Maali and Do Kaliyan. Unfortunately, she passed away in Mumbai on Friday (February 15).

Manorama had done a couple of tele-soaps on Sony and Star Plus. She had started her acting career in Lahore decades ago and had moved to Mumbai during the 1947 partition along with her husband.

Almost lost in the industry, Manorama last appeared in the Oscar nominated film Water as the head of a widow's ashram in Varanasi.
