Satish Shah had the brilliance to make his fans laugh their hearts out. After getting his breakthrough in the 1994 cult classic, Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro, Satish proved his versatility multiple times. Be it ‘Simon Gonsalves’ in Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, ‘Professor Madhav Rasai’ in Main Hoon Na, or the coolest ‘Indravadan Sarabhai’ in Sarabhai vs Sarabhai, there is hardly any role that Satish couldn’t pull. However, being an actor comes at a price, and Satish too faced it at a crucial moment in his life.
Satish Shah was left in shock by an insensitive comment from a fan
In a throwback interview with a leading daily, Satish once spoke about a crucial moment in his life when humour was the last thing on his mind, as he was in a difficult situation. Revealing the shocking incident, Satish recalled:
“My wife was seriously ill and fighting for her life on the operating table. We had been married for just three months. I was sitting outside the hospital, worried and tense, when a man came up to me and said, ‘You’re looking too serious. Crack a joke!’”
