Legendary filmmaker K Viswanath, dearly known to audiences across the country as Kalatapasvi, passed away during the late hours of Thursday, 2 February 2023, at Apollo Hospitals in Hyderabad. The 92-year-old was undergoing going treatment for age-related ailments. His demise is a great loss to the Indian Film Industry.
