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.

Can't believe it's been 5 years already! His performance in Bobby changed how romantic heroes were portrayed in Hindi cinema. The Kapoor family has given so much to Indian cinema - what a legacy!

Neetu ji's posts always make me emotional. They were the OG power couple of Bollywood. My parents used to tell me how everyone wanted a love story like theirs. That black-and-white engagement photo she shared earlier was pure gold!

While I admire Rishi Kapoor's acting, I sometimes wish he had taken on more challenging roles in his later years. He had so much untapped potential beyond romantic leads. But no doubt - he was one of the greats!

The songs from Chandni and Karz are still on my playlist! That era had such timeless music and performances. Rishi Kapoor had that rare ability to make you smile just by being on screen. Gone too soon 😔

Sharmaji Namkeen was such a fitting final film - showed his versatility even at that stage. The Kapoor family's contribution to Indian cinema is unparalleled. From Raj Kapoor to Ranbir, what a journey!
