Shilpa Shetty's parents are manufacturers of tamper-proof water caps for the pharmaceutical industry. Surendra Shetty had produced one of Shilpa's films, an Indo-Chinese drama - The Desire - which never released.

According to reports, the funeral is likely to take place on 12 October morning in Mumbai itself. Bollywood actors including R Madhavan and Harman Baweja paid their family visit today to offer condolences, Indian express reported.
