Famed director Syed Atif Hussain has passed away. The Ek Tamanna Lahasil Se<\/em><\/strong> director is reported to have died of kidney failure. He breathed his last on the ventilator at the Agha Khan University Hospital.<\/p>\n

As news of his demise spread, the Pakistani showbiz fraternity is mourning the loss of the ace director.<\/p>\n

Some artists couldn’t believe that the Baban Khala Ki Betiyan<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>creator had passed away soon.<\/p>\n

Tributes Pour in<\/h3>\n

Actor-cum-host Faysal Qureshi shared his experience working with the director. In his show, Salam Zindagi with Faizan Shaikh<\/strong> (who is currently an integral part of Babban Khala Ki Betiyan<\/strong>) Qureshi opened up about Hussain’s gentle persona and the way he kept all his co-workers united.<\/p>\n

Sanam Baloch had similar sentiments for her mentor.<\/p>\n

Sad and shocked to hear about the dismissal of my mentor, friend and guide Atif Hussain. I started my career under his guidance. There are no words to express my sorrow. One of the kindest and extremely talented directors. May Allah grant his soul highest rank in Jannat. Ameen. @syedatifhussainofficial #atifhussain #director #rip<\/a><\/p>\n
