Ranjit Chowdhry, a Bollywood actor who crossed over to the US mainstream, died Wednesday at a Mumbai hospital. He was 64-years-old and suffered a ruptured ulcer that required emergency surgery, according to reports.

Chowdhry had returned to India for some dental work, but then was trapped there by the pandemic travel shutdown.

Chowdhry appeared in two episodes of "The Office" in season 5 of the NBC sitcom, where he played a telemarketer named Vikram opposite Steve Carell.

In the story arc, he was recruited to work at the Michael Scott Paper Company.
