Rishi Kapoor - Personal Life

Personal Life

Rishi Kapoor is married to actress of the seventies, Neetu Singh. Initially when Rishi told his parents that he wanted to marry Neetu, they refused, as did her parents. It is famously known that Rishi went to Singh's house while he was sick and had a fever to go ask for Neetu Singh's hand in marriage. His determination did not go unnoticed and eventually both sides agreed. The couple tied the knot in 1981 after a highly publicized engagement. Rishi was 29 at the time. Today Rishi and Neetu are happily married and have two children; Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor and designer Riddhima Kapoor Sahani. Rishi is the paternal uncle of current bollywood actresses Karishma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor.

Famous quotes containing the words personal life, personal and/or life:

    A man lives not only his personal life, as an individual, but also, consciously or unconsciously, the life of his epoch and his contemporaries.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    The life of man is a self-evolving circle, which, from a ring imperceptibly small, rushes on all sides outwards to new and larger circles, and that without end.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
