Shashi Kapoor passed away on December 4 after
prolonged illness. The veteran superstar had been ailing for quite some time
and was confined to a wheel chair. 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.
Padma Bhushan Shashi Kapoor was honoured with a 3-gun salute by the government.
