Bollywood’s actor-producer-director Feroz Khan, known for blockbuster like ‘Qurbani’ and ‘Dharmatma’, passed away at his cottage here after a stretched battle with cancer. He was 70.

Feroz Khan, who died late Sunday, will be buried at the Johnson Market burial ground at 5.30 p.m. Monday, his younger brother Sanjay Khan said.

He is survived by son, actor Fardeen Khan and daughter Laila. Feroz Khan, was last seen in the 2007 comedy ‘Welcome’, had divorced his wife Sundari 24 years ago.

The filmmaker, who was known to have led a quiet and simple life in Bangalore, had been battling cancer for the past one year and was under treatment in a Mumbai hospital. Family sources said his demise was not surprising as his physical condition had been falling sharply.

Family sources said actor Hrithik Roshan, who is married to Sanjay Khan’s daughter, and his filmmaker father Rakesh Roshan were expected to arrive here to pay their last respects to the director.

He acted in hit films like ‘Arzoo’, ‘Aurat’ and ‘Safar’ as well as play crucial roles in his own directorial ventures ‘Qurbani’ and ‘Dharmatma’. He won a Filmfare honor for best supporting role in ‘Aadmi Aur Insaan’ in 1970 and was honoured with the lifetime achievement award in 2000.
