Manoj Kumar, renowned as Bharat Kumar, passed away at the age of 87 on Friday. The ‘lion’ of the Indian Film Industry reportedly took his last breath at 3:30 a.m. at Kokilaben Dhirubai Ambani Hospital after being admitted for a prolonged illness.

The late actor’s legacy has been flourishing over the years, and fans were deeply disheartened with the unfortunate news. Many of his fans were quick to share the deepest condolences on social media, where they even shared poetry, his tribute towards patriotism, and sweet memories with him.

One of the X users wrote, “Very sad news. Iconic star, the one who got the name Bharat Kumar due to his patriotic movies, Manoj Kumar is no more. One of the few actors from that era whom I liked a lot. And only actor from that era whose movies I used to watch in childhood. Shraddhanjali.”

Another user penned down his heartfelt sentiments, stating, “Pran Sahab is one of my favorite artists. He was one of the most handsome actors of his time but unfortunately he mostly got villain roles. Manoj kumar. Sahab Mahendra kapoor Ji”


“Tributes to the legend who gave us films that depicted the spirit and heritage of Bharat. Om Shanti,” another user shared their condolences for the nation’s loss.


A fourth user said, “भारत की बात सुनाने वाली आवाज़ आज खामोश हो गई। मशहूर एक्टर, निर्माता निर्देशक मनोज कुमार का मुम्बई में निधन हो गया। देशभक्ति की फिल्में बनाने के लिए उनको देश जानता था। विनम्र श्रद्धांजलि (The voice that spoke about India has gone silent today. Famous actor, producer and director Manoj Kumar passed away in Mumbai. The country knew him for making patriotic films. Humble tribute)”

Another user expressed, “'Bharat’ has lost the man who gave it a face on screen. From Shaheed to Upkaar, his every frame carried the fragrance of mitti, the pride of Tiranga. An eternal salute to the man who made India emotional on screen.”


Vivek Agnihotri, the director known for ‘The Kashmir Files,’ shared his condolences on social media. Being one of the late actor’s fans, he expressed, “India’s first truly original and committed Indic filmmaker, Dadasaheb Phalke awardee Shri Manoj Kumar ji, left us today. A proud nationalist. A staunch Hindu at heart. A visionary director who gave Indian cinema a new grammar — of song picturisation, of meaningful lyrics, of cinema that didn’t just entertain but remembered to belong. He made patriotism cinematic, without noise. He made nationalism poetic, without apology. In a time of borrowed voices and secondhand aesthetics, he dared to be rooted. Patriots and artists like him never die. They simply transcend — into memory, into celluloid, into the nation’s heartbeat. अन्य कलाकार मृत्यु को प्राप्त होते हैं, पर देशभक्त कलाकार कालजयी होते हैं।”
