On the third anniversary of Rishi Kapoor’s death, his family, friends, and collaborators remember him as a charming and endearing person who personified the Bollywood romantic hero for three decades.
Kapoor, who acted in films ranging from “Bobby” in 1973 to “Mulk” in 2018, died at the age of 67 on April 30, 2020, after a two-year battle with leukaemia.
Ranbir Kapoor, his son and a Bollywood star, said that nothing can prepare a person for dealing with the void that a parent’s demise creates in their lives.
Kapoor’s colleague Jackie Shroff remembered him as one of the finest actors in Indian cinema. Kapoor was one of the few actors who could maintain their on-screen image of a romantic hero for decades and worked with female stars from across generations.
In his later years, Kapoor was happy with his second innings as a character actor, which included films such as “Do Dooni Chaar,” “Agneepath,” “Kapoor & Sons,” “Mulk,” and “102 Not Out.”
Best work of his Filmography includes movies like- Bobby, Laila Majnu, Rafoo Chakkar, Sargam, Karz, Prem Rog, Nagina, Honeymoon, Banjaran, Heena and Bol Radha Bol.
