Neetu opened up about the trolling she faced after deciding to return to work during her appearance in the latest episode of Soha Ali Khan’s YouTube show, All About Her. Neetu was joined by her daughter, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, during the episode. “I just started working. He passed away, and I did JugJugg Jeeyo. I just went to work to get the confidence back. I was in such a bad state, and it was so hurting when people used to say ke ‘ohh he passed away, and she jumped into work’. That was horrible. But they don’t know why I did it. I have to tell you what happened to me. When he passed away, I couldn’t sleep for a month or two, and I got into drinking. I used to start drinking, and then I could not sleep without drinking,” Neetu said. Neetu confessed that she didn’t like this version of herself, as she has always been health-conscious. “I needed to numb my head and go to sleep. I didn’t like myself. I called my doctor and asked for help…So she got me in touch with a gynaecologist, who used to come to my house at night around 11 pm and inject me and put me to sleep. She used to sit there till the time I didn’t sleep. She used to tell my staff to keep a check on me. This happened for 10 days. And on 11th or 12th day, I called her and told her that ‘I am good and I can move on’.... But I needed to get out. I spoke to Karan (Karan Johar), and he asked me to get back to work,” added the actor. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Soha (@sakpataudi) Here, Neetu confessed that she was a “nervous wreck” while doing JugJugg Jeeyo, adding that the experience made her stronger. She also spoke about the mantra of life, which is “saanu ki (Why should we bother?)”, and if they ask me, then I ask them “taunu ki (Why do you bother?).”More about Rishi and Neetu
Rishi and Neetu got married on January 22, 1980. They have two children--Riddhima Kapoor Sahni and actor Ranbir Kapoor. In the 1970s and 1980s, the couple starred in several hits together, such as Amar Akbar Anthony, Khel Khel Mein, Rafoo Chakkar, Kabhi Kabhie, Besharam, and many more, inspiring generations with both their on-screen and off-screen romance. Rishi Kapoor was diagnosed with leukaemia in 2018. Following his diagnosis, he travelled to New York for nearly a year for treatment. After returning to India in 2019, he resumed work and appeared in a few projects. However, his health declined again in early 2020, and he was admitted to a Mumbai hospital. On 30 April 2020, Rishi Kapoor died after battling cancer at the age of 67. Rishi's final film was Sharmaji Namkeen (2022), which was released posthumously. Since he could not complete filming, Paresh Rawal stepped in to finish his portions.
