Neetu Kapoor remembers Rishi Kapoor in touching musical moment, shares their song 'Jaan Meri Rooth Gayee'

Neetu Kapoor remembers late husband Rishi Kapoor by sharing their song 'Jaan Meri Rooth Gayee' on their wedding anniversary. A touching tribute.

"In remembrance - Neetu Kapoor"

Mumbai, January 22

Late actor Rishi Kapoor's films are often remembered as much for their music as for the stories themselves, with many of his songs becoming timeless classics.

And on Thursday, his wife and veteran actress Neetu Kapoor, remembered him through music alone. She shared a video of their song 'Jaan Meri Rooth Gayee' from their film 'Doosara Aadmi', which was released in 1977.

"In remembrance," she captioned the post.

Rishi and Neetu got married on January 22, 1980, and were blessed with two children, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni and superstar Ranbir Kapoor.

Back in the 70s and 80s, the couple starred in several hits together like Amar Akbar Anthony, Khel Khel Mein, Rafoo Chakkar, Kabhi Kabhie, Besharam, and many more, inspiring generations with both their on-screen and off-screen romance.

Often branded as Bollywood's first chocolate boy, Rishi reached the heights of stardom in the film industry with iconic roles in blockbuster hits like Bobby, Chandni, Karz, and many others.

Rishi Kapoor died on April 30, 2020, at the age of 67, after a two-year battle with leukemia.

His last film, Sharmaji Namkeen, was shot with Paresh Rawal, as the actor's portions of the film were incomplete.

Rishi Kapoor was the original rockstar of Bollywood. His energy in songs was unmatched. Bobby and Karz are my all-time favorites. His legacy lives on through this incredible music. Gone too soon.

It's heartbreaking to see. My parents grew up watching their films and their jodi was iconic. The music from that era had a soul that's missing today. Respect to Neetu Kapoor for keeping his memory alive.

While the tribute is touching, I sometimes feel we overly romanticize the past. There are many brilliant actors and love stories in cinema today as well. We should celebrate the present legends too.

True legend. His comic timing in films like "Amar Akbar Anthony" was superb. The industry has lost a giant. Wishing strength to Neetu ji, Riddhima and Ranbir. Their family's contribution to Indian cinema is immense.

Watching this made me so emotional! My nani used to tell me stories about going to see their movies in theatres. That era of simple, heartfelt storytelling and memorable music is truly gone. 🙏
