Arun Dutt, son of legendary filmmaker Guru Dutt and playback singer Geeta Dutt, died of Kidney failure, said his daughter Gouri. He was 58.

He died Saturday afternoon in Pune and his funeral took place the same day.

"My father passed away yesterday (Saturday) afternoon in Pune," Gouri told IANS.

"He had been unwell for the past one year. He was suffering from multiple complications, but the major reason was kidney failure. His funeral took place last night at Pune itself," she said.

Arun worked as the director of Guru Dutt Films Acting Academy and Gouri, a fashion designer, did a four-month course from the institute.

Arun is survived by his wife Kavita and two daughters - Gouri and Karuna, who worked with Anurag Kashyap's production house.
