The Bangladeshi content creator and actress Kaarina Kaisar, daughter of former national footballer Kaisar Hamid, was buried in her maternal family’s graveyard in Munshiganj on Monday. Her mother, Lopa Kaisar, said the family would build a mosque beside the grave.

Kaisar’s body arrived in Dhaka from Chennai on Sunday evening after she died of acute liver failure. Two funeral prayers were held before her body was taken to the capital’s Central Shaheed Minar at 10 pm, where a third prayer was offered and the public paid their respects.

A fourth and final funeral prayer took place at 8.30 am on Monday in the village of Abdullahpur, in Gajaria upazila, Munshiganj. She was then interred in the family burial ground at her maternal ancestral home.

Kaarina Kaisar had contracted hepatitis A and E, which left her liver virtually non-functional, relatives said. As her condition worsened, she was flown by air ambulance to the Christian Medical College in Vellore, Chennai, on Monday night a week earlier. Doctors were preparing her for a liver transplant when her blood pressure plummeted, resulting in her death.

Before the burial, Lopa Kaisar appealed to journalists not to photograph the shrouding of the body and asked them to deposit their mobile phones before entering the cemetery. She then announced the family would build a mosque beside Kaarina’s grave.

Her brother, Saddaf Hamid, said the house and its grounds held deep sentimental value for his mother and sister. “We have several plans. Once our mother is settled, we will carry them out beside my sister’s grave,” he said.

A relative, Zubayer Jahangir, remembered Kaarina Kaisar as “very lively, sociable and humble” from childhood. “Whenever she came to the area, she mixed with everyone. Losing her isn’t something we can easily accept,” he said.

Kaarina Kaisar was the granddaughter of the late Dr Abul Khair Bachchu and Dr Zohra Khanam Parul of Puran Baushia Sarkar Bari in Gajaria.
