Actor Vivekh has made people laugh and think with his comedy in Tamil cinema. He is an avid environmentalist as well.
Vivekh, who suffered a heart attack last Friday, was admitted to a private hospital in Chennai. There he received intensive care, including an angioplasty. However, he passed away on Saturday morning without responding to treatment. Politicians and celebrities mourned his death in person and on social media.
Vivek's manager and close friend Cell Murugan posted an emotional post on Twitter which has been moving fans. The note can be roughly translated as such – “There is no one for me except him...When a death occurs, some people will post the person's photo in their display photos, some will move on posting RIP, some will write a long tribute while others will disappear posting a tearful emoji. But my dear elder brother, you have left to meet Lord Murugan, leaving behind a true soul and your friend for life. It is said that Lord Murugan will guard everyone but now who will protect your Murugan? I am asking this in deep depression - Who is there for me now?"
