ANDRIĆ PRIZE WINNER: Famous Serbian Artist Zoran Milojević Ševko Passes Away at 72!

Zoran Milojević Ševko, actor, composer, novelist, and recipient of the Andrić Prize, has passed away at the age of 72.

Last night, singer and actor Boris Bizetić, who collaborated with Milojević Ševko, informed the public and fans about the news via social media.

The actor appeared in numerous films and TV series, including “Svemirci su krivi za sve”, “Sekula nevino optužen”, and “Rokeri s Moravu”, where he worked alongside Bizetić.

Boris Bizetić shared an emotional message on social media:

*”Today, our long-time friend and collaborator Zoran Milojević Ševko passed away. He was 71 years old. For friends from his youth, he was known as ‘Bule’; for most TV viewers, as ‘Jablan’ from BB Show. For us, he was Ševko and Strikica.

Ševko was an amazing comedian, capable of memorizing incredibly long texts and improvising brilliantly. He loved to dance and was always part of our choreography teams. Alongside his natural rhythm and excellent musical ear, one of our favorite things about Ševko was that he was a fantastic voice actor. Together, we did hundreds of BB Hollywood dubbings of foreign films, and he always shone,”* Bizetić wrote, continuing:

*”He began his career as a composer and lyricist for numerous folk singers. For about thirty years, he was present in the public eye as an actor in various TV shows. Alongside that, he worked as a radio host, columnist, and author of many novels and collections.

Beyond his works, he leaves behind children and grandchildren. For us, he leaves countless memories of the time we spent together, both personally and professionally. Ševko was a good friend, witty and emotional, with whom we shared many happy moments.

We will always love him — Boris, Anita, and Doris.”*
