Sonam Kapoor, along with Janhvi Kapoor and Khushi Kapoor, grew emotional during the final rites of their grandmother Nirmal Kapoor, on Friday, May 2.

Nirmal, the mother of Boney, Anil, and Sanjay Kapoor, passed away yesterday at the age of 90.

One viral clip shows the Prem Ratan Dhan Payo actress visibly grief-striken, with her head bowed and tears streaming down her cheeks.

Other members of the Kapoor family in attendance included Anil Kapoor, Arjun Kapoor, Shanaya Kapoor, Boney Kapoor, Maheep Kapoor, and Anshula Kapoor.

Meanwhile, several Bollywood celebrities paid tribute to the departed soul by attending the funeral, including Jackie Shroff, Farhan Akhtar, Ayan Mukerji, Arbaaz Khan, Rani Mukerji, Karan Johar, Fardeen Khan, and Anupam Kher.

The funeral took place shortly after the Maidaan producer, on behalf of the Kapoor family, announced his mother passing via Instagram.
