Bollywood actress Geeta Kapoor, who rose to fame with Meena Kumari-starrer
Pakeezah, has left for heavenly abode.
The 67-year-old actress who was abandoned by her children, son Raja Kapoor and daughter Aradhya Kapoor, died on Saturday in an old age home in Mumbai.
Her son Raja is a choreographer and her daughter Aradhya is an air hostess.
As reported earlier, since the actress had no one to take care of her, film producer Ramesh Taurani and Ashoke Pandit had come forward and extended their support towards her. They had been taking care of her and her medical expenses.
In a statement, Ashok Pandit has said, "Her body will be kept at Cooper Hospital, Vile Parle, for two days hoping her children to come and at least do the last rites. Otherwise, we will do our best to bid her a dignified goodbye."
When Mirror tried to contact the late actress's daughter, Aradhya Kapoor, who had arrived at Amboli police station on Sunday afternoon to claim the body, a family member informed that she was not in a state to speak as she hadn't met her mother in two years. "We will shortly release a statement about the details of the funeral and the prayer meet," they signed off.
We pray for her departed soul to rest in peace.
