People had not even emerged from the news of the death of Bollywood actor Irrfan Khan, that Bollywood actor Rishi Kapoor also said goodbye to this world. May the soul of #RishiKapoor , the evergreen heartthrob and Bollywood’s original chocolate boy, rest in peace.

As we are dealing with coronavirus pandemic, only his family members attended his funeral. 2020 is a dark year for everyone.
In just two days Bollywood lost their two most great and legendary actors, Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor.
Rishi Kapoor was the son of legendary actor Raj Kapoor and Krishna Kapoor, Rishi started acting in cinema at the age of three in Shree 420. His debut film was Mera Naam Joker directed by his father. Once called “the chocolate boy” of Hindi films, Kapoor was a popular actor through the 1970s to the 1990s and featured in hit films like Amar Akbar Anthony, Coolie, Saagar, Karz, and Chandni among others. This is a great loss, he will always be in our memories.
