Veteran actress Kamini Kaushal's final rites were performed on Saturday, with an intimate gathering of close family members in attendance.

The atmosphere at the Worli crematorium remained solemn as loved ones bid their final farewell.

Her elder son, Vidhur, performed the final rites, leading the traditional Hindu rituals on Saturday morning. Prior to that, Kamini Kaushal's mortal remains were brought to the crematorium from her residence in Mumbai.

In another poignant moment, the late actress's pet dogs were also a part of the farewell as members of her family brought along her loyal companions.

Meanwhile, celebrities like Kareena Kapoor Khan, Shahid Kapoor, Kiara Advani, and Anupam Kher took to their respective social media handles and offered tributes to the veteran actress. They also remembered working with her in films like 'Laal Singh Chaddha' and 'Kabir Singh'.

Kamini Kaushal was one of the leading actresses in the 1940s, 50s, and 60s era of Indian cinema, where she shared the screen with superstars like Ashok Kumar, Raj Kapoor, Dev Anand, Dilip Kumar and legends like Raaj Kumar and Dharmendra, among many others.

The actress made an indelible mark in the industry with her very first film. Her debut, Neecha Nagar (1946), won the prestigious Grand Prix du Festival International du Film at the inaugural Cannes Film Festival and remains the only Indian film to win the Palme d'Or.

It was directed by Chetan Anand and starred Uma Anand and Rafiq Anwar in the lead roles.

The actress reportedly appeared in over 70 films during her illustrious career spanning more than seven decades in the film industry.

She was last seen in the Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer 'Laal Singh Chaddha', which hit the theatres in 2022.

Seven decades in the industry and still working in her 90s! That's real dedication. The pet dogs moment is so touching - animals know when something's wrong. 😢

While it's wonderful to celebrate her legacy, I do wish more young people knew about these pioneering actors. Our film history is so rich but often forgotten in today's fast-paced entertainment.
