His health was simply fine; he had no problems whatsoever. I don't know what's happening. I was equally close to Rishi and Rajiv. I have lost four people from my family--my mother Krishna Kapoor (October 2018), eldest sister Ritu (January 14, 2020), Rishi and now Rajiv. These four were my central core, with whom I did most of my talking." (Also Read: Soha Ali Khan's Living Room Has A Big Wall Size Painting Of Her Own, She Shares A Glimpse Of It)
