Probably the first or one of the very few comediennes of Marathi films and theatre, Nayantara left for heavenly abode on sunday 30th November2014. She was 64. Popularly known for her role as Laxmikant Berde’s mother in a play ‘Shantech Kaarta Chalu Aahe’ and few other plays like ‘Bhetalaat tar Bhetalaat’; she was also active on silver screen, with marathi films like ‘Baala Gau Kashi Angaai’, ‘Ashi Hi BanavaBanvi’ and ‘Dhaagaddhinga’.

For more than a decade, she was a patient of Diabetes and a few days back she was hospitalised at Nair hospital, where she breathed her last on sunday. She has been survived by a son and a large family. Heartfelt condolences from marathimovieworld.com. May her soul rest in peace.
