As it was Karisma's birthday on Wednesday, Kareena penned an uplifting note for "Lolo," giving her strength. "This is my most favorite picture of you both. To the strongest and best girl in the universe... It's been a tough year for us, but you know what? As they say, tough times don't last, but the toughest sisters do. To my sister, my mother, my best friend... Happy birthday, my Lolo @therealkarismakapoor," she captioned the post. Along with the heartfelt note, Kareena shared a candid picture of her husband, Saif Ali Khan, and Karisma.

Sunjay Kapur reportedly died after suffering a heart attack while playing polo in London, United Kingdom, on June 12. Kapur's final rites were performed at the Lodhi Road Cremation Ground in South Delhi on June 19, with family and close associates present.

Sunjay Kapur was the chairman of Sona Comstar. He married Karisma Kapoor in 2003. The couple became parents to daughter Samaira in 2005 and son Kiaan in 2011. In 2014, Karisma and Sunjay filed for divorce by mutual consent, and their divorce was finalised in 2016. After the separation, Sunjay married Priya Sachdev. The couple welcomed a son, Azarias, after their marriage.

Heartbreaking to hear about Sunjay Kapur's passing. Even though they were divorced, losing someone you once shared your life with must be painful. Karisma showed grace in her response. Wishing strength to the entire Kapoor family during this difficult time 🙏

Kareena's birthday message to Karisma was so touching! Bollywood sisters showing real sibling goals ❤️ It's beautiful how they support each other through thick and thin. The Kapoor girls have always been classy in handling personal crises.

So young to pass away at 51! This is a wake-up call for all of us to take our health seriously. Heart attacks don't discriminate based on wealth or status. My condolences to both families - Karisma's and Sunjay's current wife Priya. Must be devastating for the children.

The media should give them space to grieve privately. Just because they're celebrities doesn't mean we need minute-by-minute updates. Karisma's simple thank you note says it all - she's handling this with dignity.

Life is so unpredictable yaar. One moment playing polo, next moment gone. Makes you think about what really matters. Hope their kids Samaira and Kiaan get all the love and support they need from both sides of the family.

Karisma has always carried herself with such poise, whether during the divorce or now. Not many could maintain such grace under constant media scrutiny. Wishing her peace and strength - no matter the past, this must be a difficult time.
