Renowned filmmaker Sanjay Gadhvi, celebrated for his directorial ventures such as Dhoom and Dhoom 2, has tragically passed away. His journey in the world of cinema began in 2000 with his debut film “Tere Liye.” He swiftly followed this success with “Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai” in 2002, marking his initial collaboration with Yash Raj Films. However, it was the Dhoom franchise that catapulted him to widespread recognition. Directing the blockbuster hits Dhoom (2004) and Dhoom 2 (2006) firmly established his name in Bollywood.
Unfortunately, Gadhvi suffered a sudden heart attack at the age of 56, just days before his 57th birthday. His daughter, Sanjina Gadhvi, confirmed the devastating news. She expressed shock as he had appeared in good health before the unexpected incident. Despite being rushed to Kokilaben Ambani Hospital, he was declared deceased upon arrival.
Throughout his career, Gadhvi directed several noteworthy films under the Yash Raj Films banner. Beyond the Dhoom series, he ventured into diverse projects, including Kidnap (2008) featuring Sanjay Dutt, Imran Khan, and Minissha Lamba. He also helmed Ajab Gazabb Love (2012) starring Arjun Rampal and Operation Parindey (2020) featuring Amit Sadh and Rahul Dev.
The untimely demise of Sanjay Gadhvi has left a profound void in the film industry. Tributes from cinephiles and fellow artists continue to pour in, acknowledging his immense contributions to Indian cinema and mourning the loss of a talented filmmaker.
