As per reports, in the middle of the night, he fell in the toilet and was found the next morning in a pool of blood. He was immediately taken to the hospital and operated but unfortunately, he was paralysed since then. His family couldn’t afford his treatment and so, they shifted him from Mumbai to Jaisalmer and later Jaipur for treatment.
Vyas’s co-actors Irrfan Khan, Manoj Bajpayee and Aamir Khan had come forward to help his family with treatment. He is survived by his wife, Shobha Vyas and two daughters.
Shri Vallabh Vyas’ memorable work includes the role of Ishwar in Ashutosh Gowariker’s Lagaan (2001) and Jinaah in Sardar (1993). Some of his other noted films included Sarfarosh (1999), Shool (1999) and Dil Bole Hadippa (2009) among others.
