Reacting to Neetu’s Instagram post, Alia Bhatt’s mother, Soni Razdan, posted a series of red-heart emojis. Ranbir is dating Alia Bhatt and there are reports that they will soon tie the knot. Farah Khan Ali wrote, “Speedy recovery ❤️”
In July last year, Neetu’s daughter Riddhima Kapoor Sahni had lashed out at a social media user for claiming that her mother, brother Ranbir and Karan Johar had tested positive for COVID-19. “Attention seeking ??? Least verify/ clarify ! We are fit We are good ! Stop spreading rumours ! #lunatics #fakenews,” Riddhima had written.
Ranbir’s father Rishi Kapoor, a legendary Bollywood actor, died in April last year after battling cancer for two years. Rishi Kapoor’s tragic death had occurred during the national lockdown. Incidentally, he had passed away just a day after another legendary actor, Irrfan Khan, died, also battling cancer.
On the work front, Ranbir will next be seen in Shamshera, Brahmashtra, Luv Ranjan’s untitled next and Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal.
