Neetu Kapoor says she is trolled for posting on Instagram after Rishi Kapoor's death: 'They want to see a crying widow'

Neetu Kapoor has 1.8 million followers on Instagram and regularly posts on the platform. She has said that there is a section of people who troll her for enjoying life after Rishi Kapoor's death.

Neetu Kapoor has shared that some people have trolled her for posting on her Instagram after the death of her husband Rishi Kapoor. Neetu, who lost Rishi two years ago, has become active on Instagram in the past few months. She is also working on a number of projects, but often gets comments telling her that she should be grieving instead.

Rishi Kapoor passed away in April 2020. Neetu Kapoor says some people want to see her as a grieving widow after his death.

Neetu had previously shared that she poured herself into work and started socialising more after Rishi's death to cope with her grief. She has now said that she will continue to do so and will simply block those on the internet who try to troll her about it.

Neetu, who has 1.8 million followers on Instagram, told Film Companion, "I do it just because I love it. I enjoy it. I love my followers. I just block the ones who troll me. I just block them. Because you know hote hain thode bahut beech mein ki 'husband mar gaya, ye enjoy kar rahi hai (there are some who say things like her husband is dead and she is enjoying).' They want to see that crying widow type. There's a section of people, but I just block them. I say this is the way I want to be, this is the way I will be."

Neetu and Rishi got married in January 1980 and welcomed their first child, daughter Riddhima Kapoor, in September that year. They became parents for the second time in September 1982 as they welcomed their son Ranbir Kapoor. Rishi died after a long battle with cancer in April 2020.
