Ranbir Kapoor recalled Rishi-Neetu’s strained relationship
Ranbir while speaking about the troubled relationship between Rishi and Neetu told, “Anybody who speaks in a louder tone, it disturbs me, since childhood. My parents went through a lot of fights. We lived in a bungalow, so I have spent most of my childhood on the staircases, hearing them fight. I was always scared and on the edge.” He further said, “I think they were both going through a rough patch. My sister wasn’t around, so I kind of felt responsible. My mother used to talk about her feelings to me. But, my father wasn’t that expressive. I never understood or heard his point of view.”
Rishi Kapoor-Neetu Kapoor’s marriage and family
Rishi and Neetu got married on January 1980. The couple also had an elder daughter Riddhima Kapoor Sahni now married to Bharat Sahni. Ranbir has been married to his Brahmastra co-actor Alia Bhatt on April 2022. The duo have a daughter Raha Kapoor who was born in November 2022.

The actor was last seen in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal, co-starring Rashmika Mandanna, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Triptii Dimri, Suresh Oberoi and Shakti Kapoor.
