Sridevi: 'Case Closed'. 'Body Reaches Dubai Airport'. 'Funeral Tomorrow'.




Police in Dubai have closed the case into the death of Sridevi. Following the completion of a "comprehensive investigation" into the circumstances of Sridevi's death, her body has now been approved for release. Her family members were handed the letters for the release of her mortal remains this afternoon. It took the family three days to receive her mortal remains due to police and forensic investigations.  Her body is now being embalmed before being flown to India for her funeral.

The actress, 54, died on Saturday. It had initially been reported that she died of cardiac arrest but police and forensic investigations later revealed the cause of death as accidental drowning in the bathtub following loss of consciousness.

Ever since the police challenged the initial cause of her death there was a tremendous amount of confusion on exactly what transpired in the last hours of Sridevi's life.

Sridevi was in her room in the Jumeirah Emirates Towers Hotel when she breathed her last. But what exactly happened in the last few hours before the Rashid Hospital in Dubai declared Sridevi was 'brought dead' was shrouded in mystery.

Boney Kapoor, who had flown back to India along with his younger daughter Khushi, flew back to Dubai and reached Sridevi's hotel room in Dubai on Saturday evening, around 5.30pm, to surprise her.

Boney and Sridevi are said to have had a brief conversation, after which the couple decided to have dinner together. Sridevi went to the restroom to freshen up. 15 minutes after she went in and Boney received no response from her, he broke open the door and found Sridevi lying motionless in the bathtub.

Kapoor then tried to revive his wife and when he was unable to do that he called a friend. After that, he informed the police at 9pm. Soon Sridevi was rushed to the Rashid Hospital in Dubai, where she was declared brought dead.

To ensure there was no foul play involved in the death of Sridevi the Dubai Police decided to hold back the body till they had thoroughly investigated the case and come to a logical conclusion. For the last three days, Sridevi's body remained with Dubai  authorities.

Sridevi's mortal remains were claimed by the family members including her husband Boney Kapoor. The latest news being that Sridevi's mortal remains are on its way to Dubai airport from they will be flown back in a charted plane provided by the Ambanis. Since the body will not reach until close to midnight it has been decided that Sridevi's funeral will be held at 3 pm on Wednesday at the Vile Parle crematorium, Mumbai.

Movie Review - Kaabil by Suhel Johar

Kaabil Is A Predictable Revenge Drama   The announcement of Kaabil was a real surprise and totally out of the blue. Hrithik Roshan and director Sanjay Gupta both have different cinematic sensibilities so the idea of their coming together for a film occurred as farfetched. Their collaborative work Kaabil, a vendetta based action drama that is produced by Hrithik Roshan’s father, actor/director Rakesh Roshan is now out in the open. A revenge drama with the twist being the fact that the main protagonists in the movie are both blind in Sanjay Gupta’s Kaabil, based partially on South Korea’s Broken and Netflix’s Daredevil. The film opens with Rohan Bhatnagar (Hrithik Roshan) preparing breakfast. Instantly we know that he’s a magical man. Though Rohan can’t see, he can fix a kid’s bicycle, ride a bicycle, can sniff people apart, and believes that nothing is impossible if you have the confidence. Even more unbelievable is the fact that Rohan works as a dubbing artist an...
