Videos of Karisma Kapoor travelling to the capital with her children have appeared online.

On Sunday, Karisma was seen at Mumbai's Kalina airport with her children, all dressed in white attire for the prayer gathering.

She was spotted gently comforting them as they made their way into the terminal, opting not to engage with the paparazzi.

Karisma's sister, Kareena Kapoor, along with her husband Saif Ali Khan, were also seen at the airport, accompanying the family to the memorial in Delhi. Kareena was wearing dark sunglasses as she entered the building.

Sunjay Kapur's family issued an official statement providing details about his funeral and memorial service. His cremation was held on Thursday at the Lodhi Road Cremation Ground in Delhi. The prayer meet is scheduled for today at the Taj Palace Hotel, between 4pm and 5pm.

The statement was signed by his mother, Rani Surinder Kapur, his wife Priya, and children Safira and Azarias. It also included the names of his children with Karisma-Samaira and Kiaan.

Sunjay Kapur's Passing

Sunjay reportedly collapsed during a polo match in England on 12 June. While initial reports cited a heart attack as the cause of death, subsequent speculation suggested the cardiac arrest might have been triggered by an allergic reaction to a bee sting. However, there has been no official confirmation regarding the precise cause.

Sunjay and Karisma were married in a private ceremony in 2003. They had two children together-daughter Samaira and son Kiaan.

In 2014, Karisma filed for divorce by mutual agreement, with the separation finalised in 2016. The following year, in 2017, Sunjay married Priya Sachdev, and the couple went on to have a son named Azarias.
