Madan made an average of eight films per year, playing villains and negative characters and the hero's or heroine's uncle, father or elder brother, grandfather, police officer and politician. He starred in a number of Punjabi films throughout his career such as Jatti, Jatt Punjabi and so on.[citation needed]


He died in 1985 of a heart attack at the age of 69.[4] He was a resident of R P Masani Road in Matunga, Mumbai, also known as Punjabi Galli, with other actors of that era including the Kapoors. Several films were released after his death until 1989 with his final being Santosh.[citation needed]


Personal life




Puri's wife, Sheela Devi Puri (Wadhera), died a few years after him. He is survived by three sons.[citation needed] Pravesh Puri, Lt. Col. (Dr.) Kamlesh K. Puri and Ramesh Puri. His son Kamlesh has published a book about the life and times of Madan Puri titled My Father, the Villain.
