Earlier, TV actor Kushal Tandon too raised his voice against Rishi Kapoor's video from the hospital bed and he wrote, "There’s a forward that a ward boy or someone from the hospital has shot of Rishi Kapoor in his hospital bed just before he passed. I saw it. And think it’s a gross violation of his privacy. If you do receive it, delete it rather than forward it further. I did." He had further cleared it that he was talking about a video that showed Rishi Kapoor in the ICU. In his next tweet, he wrote, "Not the video in which the word boy is singing, there Is one more video of two minutes in which the boy is sneaking around and he his lying on his bed.” (Also Read: Amul Pays Homage To Legendary Rishi Kapoor Saying, 'Aap Kisise Kaam Naheen'; Grieving Alia Bhatt Shares The Tribute)
