And not just cash, the thieves have taken things of sentimental value as well. Talking to us, the 69-year-old shares, “The thieves had gotten into my oldest office in Mumbai, where I had in fact started my school (Actor Prepares acting school) My accounts office is still there. They broke into both the grilled and other door, took the whole office safe, which had petty cash in it because I was in the middle of shooting for my directorial Tanvi The Great.”
Kher went ahead and filed an FIR. He continues, “The safe had more than ₹4 lakh in cash, and a bag containing the negatives of my production Maine Gandhi Ko Nahi Maara (2005; it had won the National Film Award – Special Jury Award)Since it is an old building, the police had to use the CCTV footage from the adjoining building. They have found some visuals of the two people. Hopefully, the police will catch them. And I am also really hoping that they have not damaged the negatives of the film. This is what’s bothering me, baaki sab toh theek hai.”

He writes for HT City, keeping pace with an industry where news cycles expire long before the popcorn gets cold. He completed his graduation in English Honours from Kirori Mal College, followed by a Master’s degree in English Literature-effectively training his brain to over-analyse classic texts before applying those exact same skills to 3-hour Bollywood blockbusters. He got into the profession when he had barely graduated from college and has been at HT ever since. At HT, Rishabh reviews films with a simple rule: skip the dense academic jargon and get straight to the point. Beyond reviews, as Assistant Editor, he helps navigate the broader circus of showbiz, tracking everything from OTT shifts to sudden box office panics. In a beat driven by loud PR machinery and carefully scripted answers, Rishabh prefers cutting through the noise to focus on how stories get made and why trends shift. When he isn’t writing against a deadline, he is usually sitting in a dark theater, compulsively memorising dialogues. For Rishabh, analysing movies isn't just a day job- it’s a habit he couldn't turn off even if he tried.
