On Tuesday, Salman Khan was seen fighting back tears as he attended the funeral of a close family friend Kumod Raney, accompanied by several members of the Khan family.

Kumod Raney, a close friend of Salman Khan and his family, passed away on Tuesday. Her funeral was held in Mumbai and was attended by Salman along with several members of the Khan family.

Kumod was a Dubai-based entrepreneur and the founder of Reign Beauty Bar, a popular beauty and wellness venture in the city. She founded the Reign Beauty Bar in 2005.

According to a post shared on the brand’s Instagram account, with Reign, Kumod “attempted to create a high-standard beauty lounge that offers multiple services under one roof while not compromising quality”. Apart from beauty, she was passionate about interior designing, social media, and marketing.

While Kumod largely stayed away from the spotlight, glimpses from her Instagram account reflected the close bond she shared with the Khan family. From attending social gatherings with Salman Khan and celebrating birthdays with Salman Khan to spending time with Sohail Khan’s ex-wife Seema Sajdeh, her posts captured several moments with the family over the years.

Her Instagram account had over 15,000 followers and featured 633 posts, offering occasional glimpses into her personal life, travels, business ventures, and cherished moments with family and friends. It is believed that she had a son named Kabir.

Kumod had celebrated her 60th birthday earlier this year with a grand gathering attended by close friends and loved ones, including Salman Khan.

On Tuesday, members of the Khan family came together to bid an emotional farewell to Kumud Rane, gathering to pay their last respects during her funeral ceremony. Among those present were Salman Khan, Sohail Khan, Arbaaz Khan, Helen, and Salma Khan.

Several photos and videos of Salman attending Kumud Rane’s funeral have surfaced on social media. The visuals capture the actor visibly emotional as he paid his final respects to the bereaved family.
