A somber birthday: Actor Sreenivasan's passing coincides with son Dhyan's 37th birthday, leaving a profound impact on their lives.
Kochi, December 20, 2025 - A tragic turn of events unfolded as veteran actor Sreenivasan's life came to an end on the very day his son, Dhyan, celebrated his 37th birthday. This poignant coincidence has left an indelible mark on their lives.
Sreenivasan, who had been battling a long-term illness, passed away at his residence in Udayamperoor. The news of his passing came as a shock to his family, as Dhyan was away in Kozhikode for a film shoot. Upon returning, Dhyan was overcome with grief, a testament to the deep bond they shared.
Both father and son were known for their outspoken nature. Sreenivasan, in particular, was not afraid to voice his opinions, even if they invited strong reactions. Dhyan, following in his father's footsteps, has never shied away from expressing his thoughts, even when they sparked controversy.
One notable instance of their differing views was Sreenivasan's public criticism of actor Mohanlal. Despite this, the two men eventually found common ground. Sreenivasan visited Mohanlal on set and personally apologized for his earlier criticism, marking a moment of reconciliation.
Dhyan's relationship with his father was not without its challenges. During his younger years, they experienced a period of estrangement due to a serious disagreement linked to personal habits. However, with time, they healed their wounds and reconnected.
Dhyan had long cherished the dream of acting alongside his father and Mohanlal in a film. This desire was shared by his brother, Vineeth Sreenivasan, who also expressed a vision of a project bringing together the three iconic figures. Despite the tragic loss, their shared passion for cinema remains a lasting legacy.
