A day ahead of the release of Rishi's last film, Sharmaji Namkeen, Amazon Prime Video shared the video that also starred Arjun Kapoor, Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ananya Panday, Aadar Jain and Tara Sutaria celebrating as Om Shanti Om played. They were all dressed in the same attire as Rishi Kapoor from the Karz song.
Rishi's wife, actor Neetu shared the video on her Instagram and wrote, “Lovely tribute to Kapoor Saab #sharmajinamkeen.” The video opened with Rishi's face and the lines “When you truly live life, you live on.” A portion of Rishi's original song is then shown before we see the young actors, grooving to the song.
Directed by Hitesh Bhatia, Sharmaji Namkeen was the last film that Rishi shot for. Paresh Rawal stepped in to complete the portions that Rishi could not. The film's producer Farhan shared how they decided on Paresh. "When we discussed that we should recast the role, Paresh ji was on top of my list. There is a certain personality type to Sharmaji's character, he is a person who can come across maybe tough from the outside but soft and emotional from inside. I feel there is part of Paresh ji that matches this kind of personality,” ANI quoted him as saying.
