Raghu Rai, one of India's most celebrated photographers, passed away at the age of 83 in a private hospital in New Delhi. Known for his ability to capture the essence of India through his lens, Rai's work spanned decades and showcased the country's myriad cultures and landscapes. He had been battling prostate cancer, which spread to other parts of his body, including his brain. His son, Nitin Rai, shared that Rai had previously overcome cancer but faced complications related to age. He is survived by his wife, Gurmeet, and three children: Nitin, Lagan, Avani, and Purvai. The last rites for Raghu Rai will take place at 4 PM on Sunday at Lodhi Crematorium in New Delhi, marking the end of an era for Indian photography.
