Neetu Kapoor revealed an intriguing detail about her late husband, actor Rishi Kapoor. She fondly reminisced about their early days together in their relationship.
Neetu Kapoor revealed to Karan Johar that Rishi was quite a 'strict' boyfriend who didn't allow her to indulge in excessive partying. This disclosure provided insight into the dynamics of their relationship in those early days.
Neetu mentioned, "We had a fabulous time, especially with Yash ji ( Chopra ). We should party in the night, play antakshi, play dumb charades. So, that was like one picnic. That was really-really fun. But I had this Rishi Kapoor as my boyfriend. So, I never partied-partied. Because he was always like, yeh nahi karna, woh nahi karna, ghar aajao. So, I've never seen that wild side of partyingin those days."
She further mentioned," I was committed and I had a very strict mother and a very strict boyfriend. So, I was torn between both of them."
Neetu and Rishi Kapoor first met on the set of 'Zehrela Insaan' in the 1970s. What followed was a unique story of friendship, playful banter, and a love that grew over time, capturing the hearts of audiences and leaving a lasting impact on Indian cinema.
Their bond strengthened during the filming of "Kabhie Kabhie" in 1976, evolving from a strong friendship into a deep love. This solid foundation led to their private wedding on January 22, 1980.
