Parvez was rushed to Ruby Hospital after he complained of chest pain, his longtime associate Nishant Khan told PTI. “He suffered a major heart attack in the morning. He was rushed to the hospital but was pronounced dead. He didn’t have any health issues but felt chest pain last night,” Nishant said.

Khan has worked in the industry since 1986. He started his career by assisting action director Akbar Bakshi in films like Akshay Kumar’s ‘Khiladi’, Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Baazigar’ and Bobby Deol-starrer ‘Soldier’.

It was with Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘Ab Tak Chhappan’ in 2004 that he started working independently.

Parvez Khan is survived by wife, son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
