Veteran Telugu actor Shoban Babu, passed away at a private hospital here on Thursday following a cardiac arrest.
He was 71 and survived by wife, three daughters and a son. Shobhan, whose roles in soft family entertainers earned him a massive fan following among women, was counted among the top four Telugu stars of his time, sharing laurels with N T Rama Rao, Akkineni Nageshwara Rao and Krishna.
Shobhan, a fitness buff, collapsed while performing yoga at his home. He was shifted to Apollo hospital when he started bleeding from his nose. The doctors said he died of a massive heart attack. After making a mark in the tinsel world for over three decades, he has been leading a reclusive life, away from media glare, since 1997.
