Ranbir Kapoor Is Deeply Affected By His Uncle Rajiv Kapoor's Death
Ranbir Kapoor, who was extremely close to his uncle, Rajiv Kapoor, is in deep shock with his passing away. Rajiv Kapoor's death came as a second blow to Ranbir, after Rishi Kapoor's demise, last year
From his entire Kapoor family, it was Ranbir that the late Rajiv Kapoor was closest to. Not much of a talker, Rajiv poured his heart out to Ranbir whenever they met.
“They were really close. In fact, Ranbir was closer to his uncle (Rajiv) than his father at one point of time. It was only when Chintuji (Ranbir’s father Rishi Kapoor) fell ill that Ranbir became close to his father. With Chimpoo Uncle (Rajiv Kapoor) Ranbir always opened up his heart, spoke his mind. He will miss Chimpoo Uncle the most,” a friend of the Kapoors told me.
After losing his father last year in April, this is the second blow in a row for Ranbir. Apparently Rajiv’s death has left the young actor quite shaken. Alia Bhatt too was close to Rajiv.
Earlier in April 2020, Ranbir lost his father Rishi Kapoor. Rishi Kapoor’s death left many grieving. But none more so than his wife Neetu Singh who spent almost every minute of her waking and sleeping hours with her husband when he was with her.
A family friend of the Kapoors reveals the one who has helped Mrs Kapoor to ger over her bereavement. “It is her daughter Ridhima. If it wasn’t for her, Neetuji would have been lost after Chintuji’s death. Ridhima has taken full charge of her mother’s life. She has put her own life on pause to devote herself fully to her mother,” says the family friend.
Neetu Kapoor’s son Ranbir finds it difficult to express his feelings.
“Though he cares deeply for his mother, and is as worried about her as his sister Ridhima, it is Ridhima who came forward to be with her mother during this hour of need. Ridhima is so protective of her mother now it’s almost as if she is the mother and Neetuji the daughter,” says the friend.
