However, his family and close relatives have till now kept mum each time they were asked about his health. Even his brother, actor Randhir Kapoor squashed all the rumours and refused to comment on the same.

Recently, Kapoor’s wife, actor Neetu Kapoor posted a photo on Instagram, where the entire family — Rishi, Neetu along with their children Ranbir Kapoor accompanied by girlfriend Alia Bhatt, daughter Riddhima Kapoor Sahni along with husband Bharat Sahni and daughter Samara Sahni, were seen enjoying New Year’s celebrations. The happy photo was captioned, “Happy 2019. No resolutions only wishes this year !!! Less pollution traffic!! Hope in future cancer is only a zodiac sign !!! No hatred less poverty loads of love togetherness happiness n most imp. Good health.” And that one sentence dropped a manor hint at Kapoor’s sickness and got everyone back home thinking if he was indeed undergoing treatment for cancer is.
