A gunman killed dozens of people and injured many at a night club in Istanbul where people from around the world came to party together. It was there, at the Reina nightclub on the Bosporus- a hot spot for soap opera stars and professional athletes, Turks and well-heeled tourists- that those hoping to move past a particularly troubled year died together. The attack comes three weeks after twin bombings in Istanbul killed at least 45 people, mostly police officers.
Bollywood director and film producer Abis Rizvi also died in the incident. As soon as this news broke out, rich tributes from the film fraternity poured in who expressed grief at the tragic loss.
Venting out his anger against the perpetrators of the terror attack, Bollywood actor Raza Murad on said Rizvi's death was a loss to the industry.
External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj has informed that two Indian nationals have lost their lives in the Istanbul nightclub attack. Swaraj further said the government is making arrangements for Rizvi's parents to reach Istanbul.
Swaraj said she has asked Indian Ambassador in Turkey, Rahul Kulshreshth, to receive the families at the airport and make all arrangements.
