Krishna Raj Kapoor, wife of legendary actor Raj Kapoor, passed away Monday morning after suffering a cardiac arrest. She was 87.
“My mother passed away at about 5 am today due to cardiac arrest…old age was another factor. We are deeply saddened by her demise,” Randhir told PTI.
The last rites will be performed at Mumbai’s Chembur crematorium.
Krishna Malhotra got married to Raj Kapoor in May 1946, and the couple had five children.
She is survived by their three sons Randhir Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor, and Rajiv Kapoor, and two daughters Ritu Nanda and Rima Kapoor-Jain, and grandchildren.
