Gangopadhyay wrote more than 200 books and won several prestigious awards
 
Gangopadhyay, 78, died early on Tuesday morning following a heart attack, reports said.
 
His body will be kept in a mortuary（太平间） till his son arrives from the US for his cremation2（火化）, his family said.
 
Gangopadhyay wrote more than 200 books and was awarded several prestigious awards, including the Sahitya Akademi Award and the Hindu Literary Prize.
 
One of India's most popular contemporary authors, Gangopadhyay wrote novels, short stories, travelogues3 and children's fiction, but always said that poetry was his "first love".
 
He was the founder4 editor of Krittibas - a poetry magazine that encouraged new poets experimenting with new forms.
 
"One of Bengal's brightest literary stars has been extinguished. This loss will be extremely difficult to overcome. Sunil Gangopadhyay was one of the greatest Bengali intellectuals," India's President Pranab Mukherjee said in his tribute.
 
Many of his friends and fans have also been paying tribute to the author. 
 
"Deeply shocked by the death of the great Bengali writer Sunil Gangopadhyay. He was warm, kind man and a dear friend. Will miss him terribly," well-known author Amitav Ghosh wrote on the micro-blogging site Twitter.
 
"It will be extremely difficult to fill the vacuum in Bengali literature after his death as Sunil had heralded5 a new style in Bengali literature," PTI quoted eminent6 Bengali writer Shirshendu Mukhopadhyay as saying.
 
"Bengali literature has lost its guardian," said fellow writer Samaresh Majumdar.
