Bollywood actor Irrfan Khan, known internationally for roles in Slumdog Millionaire and Jurassic World, has died at the age of 53.
Khan died in a hospital in the western city of Mumbai, his agency said.
In 2018, the actor posted on Twitter to say that he had been diagnosed with an endocrine tumour, a rare illness affecting cells that release hormones into the bloodstream.
He later underwent treatment in a London hospital.
Two months after he went public with his diagnosis, he wrote an open letter about his experience with the cancer treatment, reflecting on the "intensity" of his pain and the "uncertainty" of life.
The top four trends on Twitter in India are all relating to his death, with many paying tribute to his talent.
Khan was known for his nuanced and understated performances, with many calling him one of India's most talented actors.
In 2013, he won India's National Film Award for his leading role in Paan Singh Tomar, a biopic about a top athlete who becomes a bandit.
He also acted in several Bollywood hits, including Lunchbox, Piku, and Hindi Medium. His latest, Angrezi Medium, was released just last month.
Next has warned that sales will suffer this year with shoppers kept away amid coronavirus.
The fashion retailer said on Wednesday that full-price sales in-store and online could drop by up to 40%.
The company said that it was hard to think of a time when sales and profit had "been more difficult to predict".
In the three days before non-essential shops closed under government instruction on 23 March, in-store sales plummeted by 86%.
The Leicestershire-based firm said: "In reality, the majority of our customers had decided to stop shopping in retail stores before the order came to close them."

Having finished the previous season's Second Division in 3rd place (1914–15), Barnsley expected to achieve First Division status for the first time, but The Football League instead chose to call a ballot of the clubs. Henry Norris, the then Arsenal chairman, had recently moved Woolwich Arsenal north of the River Thames to Highbury, and needed First Division football to attract fans to their new home. He was later to admit some underhand dealings, allegedly including the bribing of some member clubs to vote for Arsenal's inclusion. They duly won the vote and Barnsley were consigned to the second tier of English football for another 8 decades.
