Mumbai, June 26 Veteran actor Anil Kapoor has immersed the ashes of his late mother, Nirmal Kapoor, in the Ganga at the same place where his late father, Surinder Kapoor, was laid to rest nearly a decade ago.

Anil took to Instagram, where he shared an image of him doing rituals.

In the photograph, the actor was seen dressed in white, with a black shawl around his neck.

He was seated on the ground with his folded hands in prayer. Alongside him, other men were also seated dressed in white. The picture also featured Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati, who could be seen dressed in saffron, participating in the ritual.

For the caption, he wrote: “Grief and Healing...Today we immersed Ma’s ashes in the Ganga…In the same place where we had laid Dad to rest nearly a decade ago…”

The actor added that his mother and father are finally back together.

Anil added: “With the grief came a quiet sense of peace, Like Ma and Dad are finally back together… With each other, home at last.”

On June 24, filmmaker Boney Kapoor and actor Anil Kapoor arrived at Parmarth Niketan Ashram. During their visit, they met with Swami Chidanand Saraswati and shared the final moments spent with their late mother, Nirmal Kapoor.

Nirmal Kapoor passed away at 90 on May 2 this year due to age-related issues. Nirmal is also the grandmother to the latest generation of the Kapoor clan - Arjun Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor, Khushi Kapoor, Harshvardhan Kapoor, Shanaya Kapoor, and Mohit Marwah.

Anil had earlier remembered his mother through a social media post.

He wrote: "My mother touched so many lives, not just directly but through the people she nurtured, supported, and loved. She was one of those remarkable women who never stood in the spotlight but whose strength held everyone together.”

“A silent pillar, always smiling, always caring, always bringing warmth to those around her."

He said that his mother was the glue that kept their family close.

“From our children to our grandchildren, and even our extended family and friends. Her love reached far and wide, and it’s clear from the outpouring of messages and affection that she made a lasting impact on so many hearts", he added.
