Bollywood Art Director Nitin Desai Dies

Nitin Desai, the art director of the Oscar-nominated film Lagaan, was found dead in his Mumbai home on Tuesday. He was 64 years old. The cause of death is not yet known, but suicide is suspected.

Nitin Desai was a renowned art director who worked on some of the biggest Bollywood films of all time, including Lagaan, Devdas, and Mughal-e-Azam. He was known for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to create stunning sets that brought the stories to life.

Desai was born in Mumbai in 1958. He studied architecture at the University of Mumbai and then worked as a set designer for several years before making his break into art direction with the 1988 film Pardes.

Desai's work on Lagaan was particularly acclaimed. He won the Filmfare Award for Best Art Direction for the film, and it was also nominated for an Academy Award.
