Impact of the Passing Away of Michael Gambon on India

India is a multicultural world, with common, shared, underlying themes; its many languages dictate we must be bilingual, trilingual.

The death of actor Michael Gambon grabbed headlines, thanks to his part in popularising a modern myth, playing Albus Dumbledore in six of the eight Harry Potter movies that together raked in some $7.7 billion worldwide. The British press described him as Sir Michael Gambon, knighted as he was for his long, solid career in British theatre and television, which included playing Shakespearian heroes, and about 150 character roles in films. But people in India know him because he played Dumbledore,the headmaster at Hogwarts, the school of magic where Harry Potter learns magic, and, more importantly, forges friendship, develops moral clarity and courage, discovers love and loss, and fights the good battle against evil.
