Sharing how he was never a friend to his children, but became one during his last days, Neetu Kapoor asserted, “Chintu Ji (Rishi Kapoor) was a very loving person. He had a lot of love in him. But he never really showed his love. He always kept his distance and bullied people, not showing his love. Especially with me and my children. Respect and all he lost out on a lot with his children. He was never a friend to them. But that year, he opened up. He showed love, went towards me also, he was so lovely. We had the best time.”

As for the legacy Rishi Kapoor has left behind, Neetu even talked about her granddaughter Raha, and how her name aptly fits her since looking at the baby gives her ‘rahat’ (comfort).
