It’s been 45 years “plus”of wear and tear at the movies. With your love and good wishes,I will be back soon!”.
As per a Zee News report, it is suggested that Rishi Kapoor is accompanied by his wife Neetu and son Ranbir Kapoor and they have rented an apartment in the city.

It was not even a week that veteran actor Rishi Kapoor was gone that rumors of him being diagnosed with cancer started surfacing the internet. A media outlet reported that Rishi Kapoor is suffering from cancer and it is in the third stage. The report stated that Rishi Kapoor has been asked to undergo treatment for 45 days which includes chemotherapy sessions and that he is going through a trying time. This stirred a storm among the fans. However, Rishi Kapoor’s brother Randhir Kapoor was contacted by ETimes and he revealed that his brother is yet to undergo tests and they will share the result of what he has been diagnosed with after that is done.
Randhir Kapoor said, "We don't know yet what is the exact nature of his ailment. Rishi himself doesn't know what he is suffering from. He has not even started undergoing tests there; how can people speculate that he has cancer and that too, one that has escalated to advanced stage."
