(@uhnund) June 22, 2019 Born in Punjab on June 22, 1932, Puri started his journey in cinema at the age of 39 with 1971's "_Reshma Aur Shera_", after working in theatre and
doing voice-over parts. He subsequently featured in Shyam Benegal's films "_Nishant_" and "_Manthan_". The actor appeared in more than 200 films in various languages
-- including Hindi, Marathi, Kannada, Punjabi, Malayalam, Telugu, Tamil, and English. One of his most memorable performances was as Mogambo in the 1987 cult classic "_Mr. India_".
Puri broke into Hollywood scene as Khan, a supporting role in the Oscar-winning movie, "_Gandhi_". He was later cast as Mola Ram in "_Indiana Jones and the Temple of
Doom_", after initially turning down director Steven Spielberg's offer. Puri passed away at the age 72 on January 12, 2005, following a brain haemorrhage.
