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)

    Take two kids in competition for their parents’ love and attention. Add to that the envy that one child feels for the accomplishments of the other; the resentment that each child feels for the privileges of the other; the personal frustrations that they don’t dare let out on anyone else but a brother or sister, and it’s not hard to understand why in families across the land, the sibling relationship contains enough emotional dynamite to set off rounds of daily explosions.
    Adele Faber (20th century)

    Since every effort in our educational life seems to be directed toward making of the child a being foreign to itself, it must of necessity produce individuals foreign to one another, and in everlasting antagonism with each other.
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
