MUMBAI:The veteran actor Rishi Kapoor was undergoing treatment in hospital after diagnosed with cancer two years back. He had been taking treatment in India and in New York. He was all jovial and active till he breathed his last. He was always fond of movies, food and friends. This actor had done miracles in his seventies and was known as a romantic actor but in ‘Agneepath’ movie he had taken a swing and did a negative role that was so cruel that the viewers couldn’t think up that a personality like this can act such a brilliant role. He was loved by every fraternity and was best known for straightforwardness. He married to his co actress, Nitu Singh and blessed with two children Ranbir Kapoor, the handsome actor and Riddhima Kapoor Shani, designer. He had returned to India in September, 2019 after taking treatment aboard for one year. He had done so many movies to remember but two films in special will be remembered always are ‘Chandni’ and the negative role he played in ‘Agneepath’. He had also done comic roles in many movies. He was carrying a charismatic personality and having a smile in face always. His last rites was performed today which was attended by limited personalities and family members because of Lockdown. Among the members who present in the cremation were his family members, Saif Ali Khan, Alia Bhatt, Abhisek Bachan and few others.
