Kamini Kaushal, the legendary 98‑year‑old actress, was buried in Mumbai on Saturday. The funeral took place at the Worli Shamshaan Bhoomi cemetery, where her family held a quiet service for the veteran of Indian cinema.
The ceremony was surprisingly empty of Bollywood stars. No actors were seen in attendance, even though the industry has long celebrated Kaushal’s legacy. Instead, several celebrities posted heartfelt tributes online. Shahid Kapoor, who shared the screen with Kaushal in “Kabir Singh,” sent a short message, “Rest in light, ma’am.” Kiara Advani shared a photo of the veteran, praising her grace, humility, and lasting influence on film. Kareena Kapoor added a photo to her Instagram story, tagging the actress with a heart and a rainbow emoji. Shoojit Sircar and other filmmakers also paid tribute on social media.
Kamini Kaushal’s career spanned over seven decades and included iconic films such as “Aag,” “Shaheed,” “Nadiya Ke Paar,” and “Ziddi.” In the 1940s, she was among the highest‑paid actresses in India and helped break new ground for women on screen. Her performances inspired generations of actors and audiences alike.
The absence of Bollywood figures at her funeral has sparked discussion about respect for film icons. Even so, the online messages from colleagues and fans attest to Kaushal’s enduring impact. As India mourns the loss of one of its most revered actresses, her legacy continues to shine in the stories she helped create.
