Sridevi To Finally Rest In Rameshwaram

Sridevi, the legendary actress of Indian Cinema, left us all after going unconscious and drowning in the bathtub of her Dubai hotel room. The investigation officers concluded that the actress died due to accident but there is no criminal intent behind her death.

She was cremated at Vile Parle in Mumbai and now her ashes have been flown to Chennai.

The actress family, husband Boney Kapoor and few others will participate in this 'Asthikala Visarjana' (immersing the ashes and remains of a dead person), at Rameshwaram sea.

Hindus believe that the last rites of a person will complete after 'Asthikala Visarjana' and hence, also believe that a person will be flowing into the nature once they immerse their ashes in a flowing stream of fresh water pond or huge water body.

Hindus also believe that dead people will unite with god and nature, once they do 'Asthikala Visarjana', at a Lord Shiva piligrim. As Lord Shiva, is believed to be the god of dead.

So, many chose either Rameshwaram or Kashi to complete the last rites. As Sridevi's paternal family belongs to Tirupathi, her husband decided to adhere their wish and he is travelling to Chennai and from there to Rameshwaram in a private jet with Sridevi's ashes.
