ironically enough, one of his final theatrical roles was one of an orthodox priest – a character who babi pupuška and ilija čvorović would probably despise – in lazar ristovski's 1999 effort "belo odelo" ("the white suit"). after that, he appeared in an omnibus feature called "proputovanje" ("traveling", 1999) and starred in a tv adaptation of the august strindberg's play "the father" for radio-televizija srbije – rts ("otac", 2001).
