KARACHI: Legendary comedian Umar Sharif whose jokes most of us grew up listening to, lost his life earlier today. His health was deteriorating and he sought help from the Prime Minister for his treatment. Not monetary but rather to facilitate his travel for medical reasons. Following that, PKR 40 million were sanctioned for his treatment while Reema Khan’s husband was supposed to perform his surgery. However, we learnt a couple of days ago that while he was on his way to the US, his air ambulance made an emergency landing in Germany. The news of his death came in earlier today and Umar Sharif lost his life in a hospital in Germany.

So sad to lose Umar Sharif. One of the finest in his field, his wit and humour was legendary. We will miss him more in today’s world that’s mired in pessimism. RIP!!
