Bobby actor Rishi Kapoor has passed away. The actor who was diagnosed with cancer almost a year ago is no more. He had traveled to New York for his treatment and returned to India just a while ago. Reportedly, his cancer relapsed and was hospitalised. Amitabh Bachchan took to Twitter to mourn his death. Amitabh Bachchan wrote that Rishi Kapoor is gone and that he is totally devasted. It was just yesterday that the news of Irrfan Khan's death shook one and all.
Amitabh Bachchan's tweet read, "He's GONE .. ! Rishi Kapoor .. gone .. just passed away .. I am destroyed !" It was recently that Rishi Kapoor's brother Randhir Kapoor had confirmed the relapse of his cancer. In an interview with Zoom, he had quoted, "He is serious but he is better now. That's all I want to say. His cancer has come back but he is better right now. As a family, we are extremely stressed out. We lost our sister, we lost our mother, we are praying for the best. We are greatly stressed out. He is serious but doctors are saying he is much better now." May his soul rest in peace.
Rishi Kapoor had traveled to New York and had stayed away from home for his cancer treatment. He could not even attend the funeral of his mother as he was undergoing the treatment when she breathed her last. He was a part of many iconic films like Deewana, Amar Akbar Anthony, Bobby, Sagaar, Bol Radha Bol, Kabhi Kabhi and many more. He was an actor par excellence and the film industry has lost one of the finest actors it ever produced.
Our condolences with the family.
