“My only concern at this time is to protect my daughters and find a way to move forward without Sri. She was our life, our strength and the reason we smiled. We
love her beyond measure,” he continued.
Both the opening line, “Losing a friend, wife and mother of your two young daughters is a loss inexplicable in words,” and the closing line, “Rest in peace, my
love. Our lives will never be the same again,” gave words to the void his wife’s death has left in his life.
After the funeral of Sridevi, the Kapoor family also issued a joint statement which was shared by Sonam Kapoor and Anil Kapoor on their social media accounts.
