Sanchari Vijay: Talented Actor On Screen Kind-Hearted Commoner Offscreen #IndiaNEWSAll #Entertainment
National Award Winning Actor Sanchari Vijay passed away in a brutal motor cycle accident in Bangalore, Karnataka. He was laid to rest in his hometown of Panchanahalli in Chikmagalur district.
He reminds me of Emily Dickensons poem This quiet dust was gentleman and ladies. Yes, he was a gentleman, not just because of his cinema. National Award is not a permanent tagline sir. Its an award presented to a character in a particular year. Every cinema needs new characters, new experiences. Im afraid that this would compartmentalize me, Sanchari Vijay used to say. He needed to stay with us for long. As much as he was needed as an actor to the world of cinema, he was required as an individual with social commitment and who cared for society.
The social works he had initiated after the lockdown during the pandemic last year continued uninterruptedly this year as well. Many from the film industry might have done their best to serve society during these difficult times. But, Vijay did not stay back at home hide behind the sophisticated slogan Stay Home, Stay Safe. He got out of his way to aid the needy.
He used to feel disturbed if he could not arrange beds for Covid patients. Five or Six months ago, he had returned from the launch of a movie and we were seated, discussing something. I asked him to throw a party for buying a new car for which he said, Lets park the tale of my car aside. A few days ago, a small girl has been infected with one of the rarest diseases that affect one amongst five lakh people and the cost to treat is very high. Her parents are finding it hard to even earn a living due to lockdown. I cant imagine how will they be able to manage this. I have spoken to some people. We must help this family at any cost. And he did manage to aid the family. However, after a few days, when he heard that the girl was no more, he called up to express his grief. In times like these, I used to wonder why was he like this?
Vijays family has donated his organs to give life to many. This decision truly suits his character.

Vijay had shared one incident- Once he had gone to Sanjay Gandhi Hospital to get CT Scan done there. He returned seeing many elderly people in the queue. He said it would have been wrong to use our influence to get ahead in the queue.
I got to know about him when he was awarded the National Award. After almost a year, when our Hongirana team called him up to be a part of the short film that based on a story I had written that was to be directed by Sasvehalli Satish, he uninterestedly asked us to send across the synopsis. On the same day evening, he called back and informed that he would take up the role, and asked us to meet.
