Dev Anand honoured by British Actors Union

Legendary Indian actor Dev Anand, who passed away last month in London, has been conferred with an unprecedented honour by the British Actors Union, Equity as a gesture of sympathy and international solidarity.

 

The British Actors Union has issued a press statement expressing the union's sadness at the passing away of a non-union member, Dev Anand. The statement was presented in the form of a letter of condolence to the late actor's son Suneil Anand and was signed by the President of Equity, Christine Payne, its General Secretary, Malcolm Sinclair, and the Chairman of the Minority Ethnic Members Committee, Shiv Pande.

The letter is of tremendous significance as it demonstrates the international standing of the late Bollywood movie icon and pays tribute to Dev Anand's lifelong contributions to the Indian film industry as a dedicated actor, director and producer. This is the first time that an actor with no formal associations with Union has been honoured in this way.
