She said, “So Karan, for me, I don’t like to remember the sad part. I prefer to recall the good part of our relationship and our time in New York. So, New York was really sad, but we had the best year; I had the best year of my life.”
She also revealed how the ‘Karz’ actor would rarely be casual and friendly with his kids, but that changed in the final days.

“Because you know Chintu Ji (Rishi Kapoor) was a very loving person. He had a lot of love in him. But there was something he never really showed—his love. He always kept his distance and would bully people, not showing his love. Especially with me and my children, he was like a big thing. Respect and all, and with that, he lost out on a lot with his children. He was never a friend to them,” she said.
She added, “But that year, he opened up. He showed love, went towards me; also, he was so lovely. We had the best time.”
Rishi Kapoor passed away on April 30 in the year 2020 at the age of 67. He was suffering from leukemia and was in New York for a considerable amount of time for his treatment. Neetu was there for him as a rock-solid partner through thick and thin.
Rishi and Neetu got married on January 22, 1980, and share two children, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni and superstar Ranbir Kapoor.
Back in the 70s and 80s, the couple starred in several hits together, like ‘Amar Akbar Anthony,’ ‘Khel Khel Mein,’ ‘Rafoo Chakkar,’ ‘Kabhi Kabhie,’ ‘Besharam,’ and many more, inspiring generations with both their on-screen and off-screen romance. (ANI)
