Neetu Kapoor and Rishi Kapoor shared an exceptionally beautiful relationship as partners. In marriage, you inevitably encounter various challenges, and true courage lies in embracing each other's imperfections. If you genuinely strive to make it work, you can succeed. Neetu Kapoor exemplified this in her marriage with Ranbir Kapoor. An older interview featuring Neetu Kapoor and Rishi Kapoor has gained significant attention. The couple appeared on Karan Johar's show "Koffee With Karan," where the late actor candidly admitted that no one else could have endured him as Neetu Kapoor did.

In alignment with Rishi Kapoor's perspective, in the same interview, you can witness her disclosing to Karan about the various names she earned within the Kapoor family for managing him, ranging from "Mother Teresa" to a "punching bag," and more. "They used to call me Mother Teresa, punching bag, and other such names. But that's not the case anymore. I've evolved and established my own identity, and he has also mellowed down. They now share a healthier relationship." Following the sharing of this video on Reddit, socially conscious users are characterizing the late actor as a problematic husband and even asserting that Neetu Kapoor appears more content after his passing.

Neetu Kapoor faced trolling from online critics who questioned her apparent happiness after Rishi Kapoor's passing. In response, she firmly addressed the issue, stating that she blocks those individuals who criticize her for not grieving as they expect. She emphasized that some people only want to see a widow in sorrow over her husband's demise.

Expanding on this, Neetu expressed that she consistently holds Rishi in her thoughts, yet this doesn't imply she must always be in tears for him. "Even today, when we meet for meals, half of the time we're only discussing him. That's how we miss him. Ranbir still has his picture on his screensaver. That's the way we miss him, but we don't have to be sad to miss him. We can celebrate him; we can remember him for the good times and what a remarkable person he was." Rishi Kapoor departed from this world in April 2020.
