Arjun Kapoor went to Dubai to be with Boney Kapoor at the hotel while the formalities are being wrapped

New Delhi: Sridevi's stepson Arjun Kapoor left for Dubai this morning to be with his father Boney Kapoor, Yash Raj Films' PRO told news agency ANI. Sridevi died at a hotel in Dubai on Saturday. She was 54. The PRO informed that Arjun has gone to Dubai to be with his father at the hotel while the formalities are being wrapped up and to oversee the return journey. Meanwhile, there is no confirmation on when Sridevi will be brought to Mumbai. On Monday afternoon, Dubai police said that a postmortem revealed that she 'accidentally drowned' in her hotel bathtub. Arjun, an actor, is Boney Kapoor's son with his first wife Mona, who died in 2012. Arjun also has a sister Anshula. Janhvi and Khushi are their stepsiblings.

After Sridevi's sudden death, Arjun Kapoor flew to Mumbai from Amritsar, where he was shooting for Namastey England, one of his upcoming films with Parineeti Chopra.
Sridevi, along with husband Boney Kapoor and younger daughter Khushi, attended nephew Mohit Marwah's wedding in UAE all of last week. Their elder daughter Janhvi skipped the festivities due to work commitments. Her debut film Dhadak is scheduled to release this year. Most of Sridevi's family members were also in attendance, including Arjun.

Sridevi's MOM co-star Adnan Siddiquiwas among the first few people to meet Boney Kapoor after Sridevi's death. "When everything was settled, Boney saab called me upstairs. He was there along with a family friend, his wife and a daughter. Boney saab was crying like a baby; he was inconsolable. I was with him until 5 am. He was under a lot of stress, so I advised him to rest, and then left," he told mid-day.

A stream of Bollywood celebrities gathered at Sridevi's brother-in-law Anil Kapoor's Mumbai home on Monday to pay their condolences.

You know you can trash his lack of ambition or maintaining himself all you want,but Arjun Kapoor is truly a decent human being. I remember him speaking quite eloquently on nepotism as well and he just comes across as a grounded man with manners. Mona raised both him and Anshula in the best way possible.

I saw Anshula too along with Sonam- they were on their way to the airport. Considering all the grief Sridevi and their father gave their mother,you would expect bitterness. It is even rumoured she refused to let Boney see them when they were young. To get past that,even before Sridevi's tragic death,to show that amount of maturity then and today the sensibility with which they are handling this,am really proud of them in a way. Good on them.

I hope all the siblings can connect or reconnect and just find peace in a setting that was truly against them from the ver ystart. I see this as the only silver lining out of this truly sad sad event. My heart is really aching for Khushi and Jhanvi. Too soon. Just too soon.

Have to give it to Arjun, he was def raised well. Putting all the bitterness aside, he is sticking by his father. Hopefully him and his sister can connect with their half siblings in some way now that they have also lost their mother.

I may not like him as an actor but I respect him a lot as a human being. After this, my respect for him increased tenfold.

Why the exaggerations? I mean i have always know he is a good guy but whatever he is doing right now is the right thing to do. Its not like he is going out of his way he is jus supporting his grieving father like he should. .

there is a say that grief brings family closer...this is one such moment...

mona definitely raise her children wonderfully...any children would have grudges n bitterness for the other women/stepmom...but arjun-anushala though vey hurt n wounded who knows till now the wound is not heal as what happened to their mother due to boney-sridevi...they are still cordial n gives her respect...arjn earns a respect in my eyes...more than an actor...he is a good human being...furthermore he loves his fathet alot...all matters to him is his father's happiness...
