Bhaskar Das: Industry legend passes on
MUMBAI: The doctors had given up on him. His family was counting down the days with dread. The well-loved media professional Bhaskar Das passed away this morning at Breach Candy hospital following a long battle with cancer. He was only 72. His boss, mentor and friend Pradeep Guha had passed on in 2021. Both had teamed up to transform Bennett Coleman & Co into the powerhouse it once was.
His wife had sent out a message around a fortnight ago, informing friends about the cancer that had spread through his body and ravaged it.
He had been out of hospital at least a couple of times in the past two years. Every one hoped that the cancer would be in remission. But it was not to be.
RIP, Bhaskar. You will be missed. As will your smlie.
