He never expressed love…
Neetu further talks about Rishi Kapoor and says, ‘You know Chintu ji (Rishi Kapoor) was a very loving person. There was a lot of love between them, but there was something that they could never express their love for. He always kept a distance and used to scold or bully people… He never showed his love. Especially me and my children. He always held a big status among us. Always focusing on respect and this was the reason why he lost a lot with his children. He was never his friend.
Neetu married Rishi Kapoor in 1980.
Neetu further says, ‘But that year he opened up to us a lot. He showed us his love, he became a little soft towards me also. He was very cute. We had a lot of fun during that time. There were many days of sadness, he was undergoing chemo, blood cells were decreasing… but when he was fine, we used to do parties, lunches, shopping etc.
