Veteran Comedian Umer Sharif Passes Away in Germany

by Laiba October 2, 2021

According to several local media publications, Veteran comedian Umer Sharif passed away in Germany at 66. He is considered one of the greatest comedians in the sub-continent.

The Sindh government issued Rs 40 million for Umer Sharif’s treatment who was fighting for his life. The artist was travelling to the United States for treatment but was admitted to a German hospital on his way as he wasn’t fit to travel further in his current state.

He was due to travel last week but could not do so as he wasn’t stable enough to travel. Both federal and provincial governments assisted in moving the ailing artist to the United States.

Umer Sharif was a Pakistani actor, comedian, director, producer and television personality.

He began his career in the world of theatre at the age of 14 in 1974. His plays Bakra Qistoon Pe and Buddha Ghar Pe Ha in 1989 were quite popular. Much of his popularity at the time came from recording his plays on audio cassettes and videotapes. His exponential talent further elevated his popularity so much that he garnered an audience in the neighbouring country.

Adaptive-Tec

In Lahore, he moved towards films. As an actor and a director, he succeeded in movies such as Mr 420, for example. Upon the arrival of the satellite TV and the development of the electronic medium, Umer moved to Karachi and was seen on several talk shows he hosted and continued with his plays.

He worked in showbiz for nearly 50 years and has performed in dozens of plays, stage theatres and live shows.

Celebrities from Industry Pour in their Condolences for the legendary comedian:

The King 👑
Generations will remember your comic timing…Rest in peace.
Sirf aaj aap ne aanso diye warna tu hamesha hansaya hi tha.
Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un
#UmerShareef #RestInPeace

— Mohib Mirza (@mohibmirza) October 2, 2021

Pakistani actor Humayun Saeed wrote in a tweet, “Deeply saddened to learn about Umer Sharif sb. He was, without any doubt, the ultimate comedy king. May Allah bless his soul. We will miss you, Umer bhai!” 

إِنَّا لِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ
