The news of Kadam’s demise was confirmed by his friend and fellow actor Jaywant Wadkar. Speaking with ANI, Jaywant shared that Vijay Kadam breathed his last at his home in Mumbai at the age of 68.
“He had been courageously fighting cancer. Initially, he recovered, but his health eventually deteriorated. Around 25 days ago, he even suffered from an acidity attack,” Jaywant shared.
In fond memory of Vijay Kadam, Jaywant described him as a versatile and talented artiste. “He was extremely talented. From Marathi cinema to Hindi films, he explored different kinds of projects in his decades-long career. It’s impossible to find an actor like him again. His death has left a void in the industry. He’s like my family,” Jaywant added.
Some of Vijay Kadam’s most noted roles in his career include Rathchakra, Vichcha Majhi Puri Kara, Tur Tur, and Sahi Re Sahi.
