Avtar Gill is a veteran Indian actor born in Ludhiana in 1950, who has carved out a steady career in Hindi, Punjabi, and regional cinema. He made his film debut with the critically acclaimed Ardh Satya (1983), where his portrayal of corrupt politician Rama Shetty signaled the arrival of a serious character actor.
