Shashi
Kapoor’s funeral, which was held at the Santacruz crematorium, just got over a
few minutes back.
Here’s
a video from the crematorium where we can see family members and Amitabh
Bachchan meeting the guests inside the hall. An electric cremation was carried
out.
A
host of celebs such as Shah Rukh Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Randhir Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor,
Anil Kapoor, Lara Dutta, Naseeruddin Shah, Ratna Pathak, Sanjay Dutt,
Salim Khan, Ayaan Mukerjee, Hansal Mehta, Shakti Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan and
Amitabh Bachchan among others were present to pay their last tribute to the
legend.
Shashi
Kapoor passed away after prolonged illness yesterday at 79. He was admitted to
Kokilaben Hospital on Dec 3.
His elder son Kunal was by his bedside when
his end came. His daughter Sanjana and his younger son Karan rushed as soon as
they heard the news. Both of them were out of station when the veteran star
breathed his last.
The actor has been ailing for quite some time and was confined to a wheel chair.
As
soon as the news of his demise spread, celebs such as Amitabh Bachchan,
Aishwarya Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan, Kajol, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoorreached
his Juhu residence, Janki Kutir.
Late last night, Amitabh Bachchan, also
wrote a heartrending blog on working with Shashi Kapoor and his thoughts
when he first saw him.
May his soul rest in peace.
