Kolkata/IBNS: Actress Moon Moon Sen's husband Bharat Dev Varma passed away on Tuesday. He was 83.

Bharat Dev Varma, who belonged to the royal family of Tripura,  breathed his last at 9 am.

He is survived by his wife and two daughters, prominent actresses Raima Sen and Riya Sen.

As per reports, an ambulance was called from hospital to Dev Varma's South Kolkata residence this morning.

However, he passed away before the ambulance could reach his residence.

Dev Varma's mother Ila Devi was the princess of Cooch Behar and the elder sister of Maharani of Jaipur, Gayatri Devi.

He married acting legend Suchitra Sen's daughter Moon Moon Sen in 1978.

Mourning his demise, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee posted on X, "Saddened by the demise of Bharat Dev Varma, the husband of filmstar Moon Moon Sen, and himself a great well-wisher of mine. He was indeed very loving and affectionate to me and I shall always treasure his memories. He truly considered me as part of his family and his demise is a great loss for me.

"After getting the news today morning, I visited their Ballygunge residence, where their daughter Riya was present. Moon Moon and Raima are coming from Delhi. I paid my respect to the departed and condolences to the family."
