    Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R), 81, hospitalized for a fall. History of poor health, polio survivor since childhood; previous refusal to comment on bruised hands and purple face in 2020. Assuming he survives this, but we all know how one fall is all it takes to send someone down a spiral — especially after losing mobility. Definitely a big name to keep an eye on, has been in the Senate since 1985 and led the Senate Republicans since 2007. Was the single biggest pain in Obama's (and maybe Trump's) ass for 8 years.

    For completeness, Topol played Milos Columbo in For Your Eyes Only. Roger's co-stars are definitely getting thinned out now.

    Topol was the most picked man in the Oscar category with 11 players getting points 1. Chaim Topol yw, cc, wa, td, ph, ti, gr, to, bp, sc, di Two players now have hits in three categories @Perhaps & @Spade_Cooley but Spade just keeps the edge with 4 hits overall I am surprised we haven't had any Coronation Street hits yet

    A comment on this youtube video from six months ago claims M. Rajan died in 2018, and I think it's unlikely whoever wrote the comment is lying: M.Rajan's real name is Rajan Malhotra.His elder brother Roshanlal Malhotra was a financer and producer.He launched him as a hero in 1952 but non of his films could do well on box office.He played villains role in V.Shanram film Sehra and in Jab yaad kisiki aati hai. In both the films he gave justice but since he was very self respected he didn't go to any directors and begged roles.As a result he couldn't get expected roles.He then became character actor.Janjir,Inkar,Adalat Hum nahi sudharenge etc are his some movies.He was equally tall to Amitabh Bachchan. I asked you tube where about him but couldn't get answer For a unofficial report he died in 2018 at age of 94.He was a batchelor.A good personality hero but least known actor.Film industry forgot him due to his limited contribution.
