Veteran actor Satish Shah, whose wealth of roles across film and television defined several generations, passed away on October 25, 2025, at the age of 74 due to kidney failure.
From early appearances in cult classics like Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro to the beloved sitcom Sarabhai vs Sarabhai—where he played the unforgettable Indravadan Sarabhai—Shah demonstrated a rare versatility: he could evoke both laughter and empathy.

With a career spanning over five decades and more than 200 screen credits, he earned not just memorable characters but the affection of countless viewers.

Known for his trademark comic timing, his behind-the-scenes professionalism and his humility off-screen—Shah was more than a performer; he was a fixture of Indian entertainment. His passing leaves a striking void in the industry.
He is survived by his spouse Madhu Shah, and his many co-artists and fans remember him as the actor who made you smile, think and care. His legacy lives on—through endless reruns, memorable dialogues, and a catalogue of performances that shaped Indian screen comedy and drama.
