Artists and activists had lamented MF Husain's inability to live in India because of death threats and legal cases over paintings that Hindu groups described as obscene. Mr Husain left India in 2006. In 2010, he was offered and accepted citizenship of Qatar. He repeatedly expressed a yearning to return to India. "My heart will always be in India...it is my beloved land," he said in an interview to NDTV in March last year. Did India let him down?
