Senior journalist Vinod Dua passed away on Sunday, his daughter and actor Mallika Dua confirmed on her Instagram stories.


“Our irreverent, fearless and extraordinary father, Vinod Dua has passed away. He lived an inimitable life, rising from the refugee colonies of Delhi to the peak of journalistic excellence for over 42 years, always speaking truth to power…” she posted.



“The cremation will take place on November 5 at Lodhi crematorium at 12 noon,” added the actor.


Earlier this year, Vinod was hospitalised after contracting the coronavirus. In June, he lost his wife, radiologist Padmavati 'Chinna' Dua, after a long battle with Covid-19.
