Raghu Rai, one of India's best-known photographers whose lens captured India in its many shades, died at a private hospital here in the early hours of Sunday. He was 83.
"Dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer two years ago but he was cured. Recently, the cancer spread to his brain and then there were age-related issues too," Nitin Rai, photographer and Rai's son, said.
He is survived by wife Gurmeet, son Nitin and daughters Lagan, Avani, and Purvai. The last rites will be performed at Lodhi Crematorium at 4 pm on Sunday.
