Asuran actor succumbs to Covid

Covid took another gifted artist away as actor Nitish Veera who impressed fans with his work in Kaala and Asuran, passed away on Monday due to Covid-19. He was 45. He began his career with Dhanush’s Pudhupettai, which hit the screens in 2006. It was dubbed into Telugu as Dhoolpeta.

He was next seen in sports drama Vennila Kabadi Kuzhu. The film was later remade in Telugu as Bheemili Kabaddi Jattu

It was, however, the 2018 release Kaala–which featured Nitish in the role of Rajinikanth’s son–that proved to be a gamechanger for the young actor. He had once revealed that he was ‘shocked’ on learning that he would be acting alongside ‘Superstar’.

The 2019 release Asuran, which reunited him with Dhanush, proved to be another important release for him as it emerged as a big hit and received a positive response from critics. ‘D’ won the National Award for his work in the Vetrimaaran-helmed movie.

Nitish is reportedly a part of the Vijay Sethupathi-starrer Laabam, directed by the late S P Jananathan. The film stars Shruti Haasan as the leading lady and is expected to hit the screens later this year. The Kollywood industry colleagues of Nitish expressed their condolences and grief over his death.
