Indian cinema has lost one of its enduring icons.

Gemini Ganesan, called Kadhal Mannan or King of Romance, passed away at his Chennai residence on Tuesday after suffering from a prolonged illness.

Ganesan, 84, is survived by a son and seven daughters, among them actress Rekha.

In a career spanning over five decades, the southern superstar acted in over 200 films.
