During our conversation, Raimohan didn’t seem to be depressed.”

According to Odishatv.in, Raimohan’s neighbour said, “We had met him yesterday and he appeared quite normal. We cannot believe that Raimohan, who is loved by all, is no more.”

Born on July 10, 1963, Raimohan Parida was known to play negative roles in the films. He has acted in more than 100 Odia and Bengali films. His notable work includes movies like Singha Bahini (1998), Suna Bhauja (1994) and Mental (2014).
