A shocking photograph of Venu Madhav's last days

Venu Madhav’s recent photograph that was taken a couple of days before his death is shocking. The dialysis treatments had completely turned him into unrecognizable. The actor who even played the lead hero roles had looked weak, with pale features, listless appearance. The photo was taken at Yashoda hospital where he underwent treatment for kidney disease. He breathed his last on Wednesday morning (September 25, 2019) on the hospital bed. 

Recalling his long association with Venu Madhav, actor Rajasekhar said he heard last week about his deteriorating health condition. “I thought he is recovering well. But he could not fight any longer. He was like our family member,” he said.
