The evergreen chocolate boy of Bollywood Rishi Kapoor lost to leukaemia and breathed his last on 30th April 2020 at 8:45 am. With that adorable grin on his face, he had been valiantly fighting this battle for over two years. All this while, he had his wife Neetu Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor by his side at all times.
Due to nationwide lockdown, Riddhima Sahni, his daughter, could not make it on time as she was in Delhi. With the last rites gotten over, Neetu took to her Instagram handle and expressed gratitude to all the doctors who treated Rishi.
She posted a couple of photos of late Rishi ji, on his black and white portrait while another a candid captured with Neetu.
The actor wrote,” As a family, we have a deep sense of loss. When we sit together and look back at the last few months what we also feel is immense gratitude-gratitude towards the doctors at HN Reliance Hospital!”
She added, “The whole team of doctors, brothers and nurses headed by Dr Taran Giachandani treated my husband like he was their own- they advised us like we were their own.. and for all that and more I thank them from the bottom of my heart…@rfhospital.”
With Rishi kapoor’s passing away, the family had released a statement which read as” He was grateful for the love of his fans that poured in from the world over. In his passing, they would all understand that he would like to be remembered with a smile and not with tears. In this hour of personal loss, we also recognize the world is going through a very difficult and troubled time.”
