Renowned Film and TV actress Tamanna Begum passed away after protracted illness in Karachi on Monday, Geo News reported.
Tamanna Begum was born in Lahore and started her career with Radio Pakistan and did some theatre plays as well. She peaked in the 1970s and 1980s.
Tamanna started acting in movies and quickly rose to fame with her robust performances.
She had acted alongside popular stars such as Talat Iqbal and Waheed Murad‚ and her films were huge successes. However‚ with deteriorating situation of Lollywood, she had to settle for acting in television plays.
She had a style of her own and was a constant fixture in Urdu movies in the 70s and 80s.
I believe she was also acting on TV till the end.
A couple of months ago GEO news showed that she was living alone in bad conditions and no artists came to visit her.
She was suffering from kidney disease.
They also said that no artists attended her funeral.
They will surely pay 2-second lip service on their fake morning shows, I bet.
The same thing heppens to all artists except for ikka dukka top names in showbiz.
