The
legendary
Kannada
actor
and
politician
Ambareesh
passed
away
on
Saturday(November
26,
2018)
in
Bengaluru
shortly
after
being
admitted
to
a
private
hospital
because
of
respiratory
issues.
And,
as
expected,
this
left
his
fans
in
a
state
of
shock.
Post
this,
the
Karnataka
CM
HD
Kumaraswamy
announced
that
his
last
rites
would
be
performed
in
Bengaluru
on
November
26,
2018.
Earlier
today,
the
funeral
took
place
with
state
honours
and
it
was
attended
by
Ambi's
family
members
and
several
stars
from
the
industry.
Needless
to
say,
everyone
was
in
tears
while
bidding
adieu
to
the
matinee
idol.
Now,
some
photos
from
the
funeral
are
going
viral.
In
them,
Ambareesh's
wife
Sumalatha
can
be
seen
weeping
inconsolably
as
she
bids
adieu
to
her
husband.
The
former
actress
can
be
seen
in
tears
and
it
seems
that
she
is
reluctant
to
let
go
of
her
husband
body.
Ambi
and
Sumalatha
had
tied
the
knot
in
1991
and
added
a
new
dimension
to
their
relationship.
The
two
became
friends
while
working
together
and
love
soon
blossomed.
Some
of
their
films
together
include
Aahuti,
Avatara
Purusha
and
Sri
Manjunatha.
This
is
indeed
a
difficult
time
for
Sumalatha
and
we
sincerely
hope
that
she
stays
strong
in
this
difficult
time.
