MTG editorial

Theatre veteran Farrokh Mehta passed away at the age of 90. Husband of Vijaya Mehta and father of Anahita Uberoi, he acted in several productions over fifty years of a rich and diverse stage career which he devoted himself to along with his corporate work.

He started acting in college, was an active member of the Theatre Group Bombay, and a contemporary of Alyque Padamsee, Gerson da Cunha, Sylvester da Cunha and other theatre greats, who steered Mumbai theatre to a level of quality and sophistication. Productions like A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE, DEATH OF A SALESMAN, A TOUCH OF BRIGHTNESS, A ZOO STORY, were enhanced by his presence.

MTG conveys heartfelt condolences to Farrokh Mehta's family and loved ones.
