Urdu poet Rahat Indori passes away at 70 from heart attack

He wrote stirring couplets that even politicians quoted in Parliament. And his poems of ardour and abandon recited with trademark flamboyance made him a major crowd puller in the mushaira circuit. Rahat Indori, one of the most-quoted Urdu poets of his generation, who also frequently collaborated with Bollywood producer-director Vidhu Vinod Chopra, passed away following a string of heart attacks in Indore on Tuesday. He was 70.
