Though Krishna ji had been battling age-related issues, we did not expect her end to come so soon. We had met a few days ago, and she appeared fine. She was rushed to Breach Candy Hospital at 4 am yesterday. Later, we got the news of her demise.

She was instrumental in getting her sister Uma married to me. I remember, she sent Raj ji [Kapoor, husband] to me with the proposal, making him tell me why Uma was the most suitable life partner for me. She was the epitome of grace. At Rajji's insistence, she always wore white. She was always immaculately dressed and her mane, well coiffured.
