He was an active part of Hindi cinema for more than four decades and worked with some of the most accomplished filmmakers.

Khote was fantastic both in comedy and villainous roles and was truly an actor par excellence. Not many actors are fortunate enough to be remembered by their celluloid characters' names, but this man had two of those. May his soul rest in peace.
