Eknath Shinde writes tribute

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde expressed his condolences and shared a note in Marathi on Instagram. It said: “Premature exit of a smart actor: someone who makes the audience laugh and sometimes brings tears to their eyes.” The untimely death of the always introspective class actor Atul Parchure is painful. Atul Parchure has shown his glorious acting career from Balarangbhumi. They left a unique impression in all three categories of drama, film and series. Young Turks are old extracts, relatives or feces. OK. Be it Deshpande's literal, reading humor, Atul Parchure added deep colors to it with his personal qualities. You were also a great personality in Marathi and Hindi films. A top Marathi actor has been lost due to his departure. This damage cannot be repaired. As one of Parchure's thousands of fans, I am part of the family members' grief over this relationship. May God give them the strength to endure this suffering. On behalf of the state government, I pay tribute to them. “Om Shanti.”

Atul leaves behind a remarkable body of work in Marathi and Bollywood films. He acted with stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgn. On television, he showcased his comedic skills in The Kapil Sharma Show.
