Veteran actress, Neetu Kapoor leads her life like a queen. The actress, who ruled the screens in the 80s and 90s, was last seen in the film, JugJugg Jeeyo. With her impeccable looks and fit physique, Neetu can give tough competition to all the younger actresses. However, not many know that Neetu embarked on her acting journey early in life, so she could not pursue higher education.
During her appearance on Koffee With Karan 1, Neetu Kapoor shared an interesting anecdote from her married life with Rishi Kapoor and revealed that she studied till the eighth grade. The actress revealed that she was naive when she got married, and Rishi would use big English words in front of her. She shared:
"Initially when I got married, I was very naive. He used big big words. He is very good in scrabble and you know... he used big words. Mai itni padi likhi nahi thi, I had just done 8th grade."

Neetu further continued that Rishi would often hang out with his friends, and she used to accompany him. However, she would often get bored, so she stopped going out with Rishi and his friends. However, her husband used to come home really late at night, which irked her. In her words:
"He used to go with his friends and be with them. And four-five times, I went, and I got bored, so I didn't go. Then, daily, he used to come home very late."
One day, Neetu Kapoor decided to confront Rishi and was very angry at his casual behaviour. However, when she opened the gate for her husband and started speaking, he told her that he hadn't led his life in duress. This made Neetu forget about all her anger, and she instead spent the whole night trying to find the meaning of 'duress'. The actress shared:
"So, one day, I decided that I am going to say that this is it. I was like so firm and so angry. I opened the door and I said , 'Look..' and I was so angry. He says, 'Listen I don't lead my life in duress.' Fir mera sab gussa bhool gayi mai apna, dictionary nikaali raat ko.. Ye duress kya hota hai?"
