Earlier, Imtiaz Ali had shared a heartfelt post for Rishi Kapoor and said, "Another day I invited him to my brother’s wedding in Kashmir. Nobody comes so far, these are formalities. He came. And when the baraat was entering the venue he said -’you guys go in front, I will come in the end’. I understood later that he did not want the attention to shift from the groom to himself. And today he left. Something precious became past today. But this time will not take him away. I haven’t met him for so long anyway, I will think he is still there, smiling. And I can still think of the little time I could spend with him, and smile with him."
Rishi Kapoor and Imtiaz Ali worked together in 2009 film Love Aaj Kal which also featured Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone.
Rishi Kapoor's ashes were immersed in Banganga tank in Mumbai on Sunday, his elder brother Randhir Kapoor said. He said a prayer meet for the actor was held on Saturday.
