Their son Suchai and daughter Shivani, who sustained critical injuries, are currently undergoing treatment in Maryland hospital and are reportedly out of danger.
Kishore, who had been working as a software engineer in the U.S. for over a decade, visited his hometown in India just 10 days back, along with the rest of the family, who all then celebrated the New Year in Dubai before their return journey to America.
Reports have suggested that the Telugu Association of North America (TANA) and local community volunteers are collecting support for the injured children while assisting with the transportation of the couple's remains to India.
