Inconsolable Akshay with his wife Twinkle Khanna, her cousin Karan Kapadia were seen at the funeral.

Earlier in the day, Akshay himself informed about the sad news to his fans and followers on Twitter.

The actor on the micro-blogging site said he was feeling "an unbearable pain" at this loss in his life.

He tweeted, "She was my core. And today I feel an unbearable pain at the very core of my existence. My maa Smt Aruna Bhatia peacefully left this world today morning and got reunited with my dad in the other world. I respect your prayers as I and my family go through this period. Om Shanti."

After his mother was admitted to hospital, Akshay, who was shooting for 'Cindrella', flew back from London to Mumbai Monday.
