While the world is already going through a tough situation and fighting with the deadly virus. From yesterday, we have been receiving sad news about legendary actors passing away. Yesterday, actor Irrfan Khan had left for his heavenly abode as he was fighting with colon infection. Yesterday night, actor Rishi Kapoor, who was recovering from cancer was hospitalised in Mumbai and his brother Randhir Kapoor had shared the news that his cancer had relapsed. While his fans and family members were praying for his speedy recovery, the actor breathed his last today morning.
His friend and 102: Not Out! co-star Amitabh Bachchan shared the sad news with the world and stated, 'I am destroyed'. The film fraternity and his fans have been sharing their heartfelt condolences for the late actor and his family. Rishi was recovery from cancer after he returned to Mumbai after one year of treatment in New York.
Neetu has been by his side throughout the treatment and was taking care of him like a mother. In a throwback interview with ZoomTV, while the actor was still abroad for his treatment, Neetu had talked about her initial reaction after knowing about her husband's cancer detection. In the interview, Rishi had also stated that it was people's blessings that helped them with the courage to sail through these tough times.
Rishi shared that the cancer was diagnosed at an early stage and his family had taken him to New York for immediate treatment. Talking about her first reaction, Neetu had said, "My first reaction was obviously very bad. I was devastated. My kids were devasted. We didn’t know what to do. But then we thought to ourselves that this is it, we have to deal with it. Where he is concerned, he was in denial. For 4-5 months, he was not himself. I think when you start accepting that this is your issue, then you are stronger. I feel he is much stronger for the past, maybe 5-6 months.”
Late Rishi is survived by wife Neetu Kapoor, son Ranbir Kapoor, and daughter Riddhima Kapoor Sahni.
