Tishaa's funeral was originally slated to be held on Sunday but was postponed after the aircraft carrying it was reportedly diverted to Ahmedabad due to bad weather. Tishaa's death undoubtedly leaves a void in the Kumar family. Tishaa's most recent public appearance was on November 30, 2023, at the premiere of Ranbir Kapoor's Animal.
