Veteran Actor Mohan Sharma Reveals Financial Struggles, Says Rajinikanth Was the Only One Who Helped
Mohan Sharma Life Tragedy: Mohan Sharma, once a producer and actor in South Indian films, is going through a very difficult time. He is suffering from serious illnesses, and according to him, only superstar Rajinikanth has helped him so far. Now, he has appealed to CM Thalapathy Vijay for help.
It can be seen that regardless of whether they belong to Bollywood or South Indian films, some of the top actors have at some point been rich and famous. However, towards the latter part of their lives, they face numerous challenges, such as money troubles. A case in point here would be Mohan Sharma.
Mohan Sharma, who once played the lead role in many films, now lives in an old-age home. Speaking to Trend Talk about his difficulties, he said, "Only Rajinikanth helped me during this difficult time. I had to undergo major surgery due to a lump in my leg. Because of this, I was unable to walk." I also suffered a ligament injury. These surgeries cost me 4-5 lakh rupees.
Mohan further explained, "I also have high blood pressure and diabetes. I have to take insulin injections daily. Medicines alone cost me about 35,000 rupees per month. I've even appealed to Chief Minister Thalapathy Vijay for help."
Recalling his past, Mohan Sharma recalls being a neighbor of the late former Chief Minister Jayalalithaa. Recalling his last meeting with her, Mohan said, "One day, her maid told me that Jayalalithaa was unwell and in critical condition. She was being admitted to Apollo Hospital. I went to her house. She asked me why I looked so worried. I told her I'd heard she was seriously ill. She replied, 'No, Mohan, I'm just going to Apollo for two days and will be back.'" I was the last person from the film industry to see him at his home.
Mohan Sharma produced nearly 20 films and acted as a lead actor in over 100. He also acted in 50 films in different languages. He was the first person to act and produce films in all four South Indian languages.
He was also once the president of the South Indian Film Chamber of Commerce. However, he now lives a largely secluded life, as he has no one to care for him.
