Biography

Character actor Shivraj, who was one of the most recognisable faces in the Hindi cinema of the 1950s and the 60s. “He was an essential element of many films even though he may not have been the most important aspect,” recollects film and music expert Pavan Jha. If the film were to be compared to a car and the hero-heroine to its engine, then Jha likens the veteran actor to the nuts and bolts of the vehicle — not talked about much but of immense value. Shivraj is known for Devdas (1955), New Delhi (1956) and Amar Akbar Anthony (1977). He died on 3 June 2017 in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. Daughter named Ritu Baruah. She is married to Rajeev Baruah.
