Mumbai, Oct 11
Sanjay Kapoor revealed that he "Missed my mother's blessing" during Karwa Chauth this year.
Sanjay's brother, Anil Kapoor’s wife, Sunita Kapoor, hosted a star-studded Karwa Chauth celebration at her home on Friday.
Along with the ladies of the Kapoor clan, the festivities were also graced by Shilpa Shetty, Mira Kapoor, Bhavana Panday, Natasha Dhawan, Geeta Basra, and Raveena Tandon, among other ladies from the B-town.
Sharing some family photos from the Karwa Chauth celebration, Sanjay shared that he missed getting blessings from her mother this year.
"Happy karwa chauth (red heart and evil eye emoji) , Missed my mothers blessing this year though I know she will be always blessing the whole family from up there (red heart emoji) , Miss you Mom," the 'Sirf Tum' actor wrote.
Sanjay, Anil Kapoor, and Boney Kapoor's mother, Nirmal Kapoor, passed away at the age of 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.
Back in June, Anil and Boney immersed the ashes of their late mother in the Ganga at the same place where their late father, Surinder Kapoor, was laid to rest nearly a decade ago.
Remembering his late mother, the 'Mr India' actor had penned an emotional social media post that read, "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."
Revealing that his mother was the glue that kept their family together, Anil added, “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."

First Karwa Chauth without mother's blessings must be really difficult. My heart goes out to the entire Kapoor family. Mothers are truly irreplaceable 💔
Beautiful to see how Indian families maintain traditions even through grief. The Kapoor family's bond is inspiring, though I wish they'd focus less on lavish celebrations and more on simple family moments.
Nirmal Kapoor was the true backbone of that family. You can see how much she meant to everyone. Her blessings will always be with them from above ✨
My mother passed away 2 years ago and I still miss her blessings during every festival. Completely understand what Sanjay is feeling. Time doesn't heal everything yaar 😔
The way Indian culture honors and remembers ancestors is truly beautiful. The Kapoor family's tribute shows how deeply family bonds run in Indian society.
