Last week has been unfortunate for the Film Industry as it saw the demises to two of its finest actors- Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor on April 29 and 30 respectively. Irrfan Khan died of cancer at the age of 53, while the veteran actor succumbed to Leukemia at the age of 67. The Kapoor And Sons actor is survived by wife Neetu Kapoor, son Ranbir Kapoor and daughter Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, while Angrezi Medium actor is survived by wife Sutapa and two sons- Babil and Ayaan Khan.
Actor-turned-politician Shatrughan Sinha recently reacted to his good friend and co-star of multiple films, Rishi Kapoor’s demise. In his latest conversation with Mumbai Mirror, Shatrugun Sinha said Ranbir Kapoor is a worthy son of a worthy father and a great actor too. He said, “But Ranbir has big shoes to fill because baap baap hota hai. One can’t compare the two at the moment.”
In the same interview, Shatrugun spoke about Irrfan too and said, “Irrfan was a combination of struggle, determination and conviction. He made his dream come true through hard work. I watched Hindi Medium and Angrezi Medium and his acting will be a textbook experience for younger generation of actors.”
Yesterday, pictures of Ranbir, Riddhima, Neetu Kapoor and Alia Bhatt immersing Rishi Kapoor’s ashes at Banganga made its way to the Internet. A picture from the veteran actor’s prayer meet had gone viral on social media.
