Father of television actor Ziaul Faruq Apurba has died.
Omar Faruk, 72, breathed his last on Friday morning. He had been suffering from lung cancer for six years.
He might have died while sleeping, said family members.
In a Facebook status, Apurba wrote:"My father breathed his last a while ago (inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi rajiun). Please pray for my father.”
He would be buried at the martyred intellectuals' graveyard in Mirpur.
