Wow! So sudden. Truly a great loss. Nevertheless, he is immortalized on celluloid.
A bad day for Indian cinema. Ismail Merchant passed away today.

Merchant Ivory film producer Ismail Merchant has died at the age of 68, his London office has said.
Along with his creative partner James Ivory, he made such acclaimed period films such as Howards End, A Room With A View and Remains of the Day.
He died in a London hospital this afternoon, his office said.
The cause of death was unclear, but a spokesman said the Indian-born producer had suffered from stomach problems over the past year.
And Rangeela died as well.
