It hasn’t been long when Bollywood had lost legendary music composer Shravan Rathod due to COVID 19 complications. And while the entire industry has been mourning the loss, the showbiz world has lost another talented artist. We are talking about National Award winning film editor Waman Bhonsle.

MUMBAIâIf ever there was a superstar among film editors, it was the legendary  Waman Bhonsle (and his late partner in most of his films Guru Dutt Shirali). Bhonsle also edited several films alone, completing 231 releases (over 210 jointly) in a career of 33 years. Waman Bhonsle passed away in Mumbai April 26 from age-related issues at the age of 89, having been born in February 1932.
I met Waman Bhonsle a decade back. Tall and impressive then even at 79, Waman Bhonsle was the first of a few celebrities I traced through Facebookâafter two months of effort! He was warm, friendly, courteous and articulate like most legends.
