New Delhi, Oct 30: Vineet Kumar, a fashion publicist who worked extensively with the Fashion Design Council of India (FDCI), has died of a heart attack. He was 37.
Kumar, who lived in Noida, was a familiar face at the many fashion events organised in the national capital over the past several years.
FDCI chairperson Sunil Sethi confirmed the news of Kumar’s death, saying that Kumar had recently discovered that he had an underlying heart condition and passed away during a surgery on Tuesday.
