The news of Rishi Kapoor’s death has left us all with a heavy heart and we find it difficult to believe that he’s no more amongst us. The 67-year-old actor had been battling leukemia for the last two years and breathed his last in Sir H.N Reliance Hospital today morning. Even during this tough time, the Kapoor family has urged their fans and well-wishers to respect the guidelines put down by the Government in the wake of Coronavirus.
A while ago, the family released a statement on his passing, take a look at it.
“Our dear Rishi Kapoor passed away peacefully at 8:45am IST in hospital today after a two-year battle with leukemia. The doctors and medical staff at the hospital said he kept them entertained to the last. He remained jovial and determined to live to the fullest right through two years of treatment across two continents. Family, friends, food and films remained his focus and everyone who met him during this time was amazed at how he did not let his illness get the better of him.
He was grateful for the love of his fans that poured in from the world over. In his passing, they would all understand that he would like to be remembered with a smile and not with tears. In this hour of personal loss, we also recognise the world is going through a very difficult and troubled time. There are numerous restrictions around movement and gathering in public. We would like to request all his fans and well-wishers and friends of the family to please respect the laws that are in force. He would not have it any other way.”
May his soul rest in peace.
