Bobby actor Rishi Kapoor breathed his last yesterday at a hospital in Mumbai. The veteran actor lost his life to cancer and all his fans mourned his death on social media. Sadly, due to the lockdown imposed because of Coronavirus, many could not attend his funeral. Even his daughter Riddhima Sahni could not bid adieu to her father as she resides in Delhi. Amidst all the tributes that came in for the actor, a video of Rishi Kapoor from the hospital bed went viral. Now, Arjun Kapoor, in his cryptic post seems to have addressed this video.
The video sees Rishi Kapoor blessing a boy in the hospital as he sings a song for him. It is an old video that was shot in February when he was hospitalised. Many on social media stated that it was unethical to share this video and Arjun too in his post stated that humanity should prevail. He wrote, "The choice to not post something is sometimes as important as to be the first to post something. Images have a lot of power lest we forget. Sometimes humanity, empathy must prevail over being first to embrace use of sly voyeuristic materia presented to you. Just sometimes.”
Earlier, it was TV actor Kushal Tandon who openly criticised those sharing the video of Rishi Kapoor on social media. Kushal tweeted, "There’s a forward that a ward boy or someone from the hospital has shot of Rishi Kapoor in his hospital bed just before he passed. I saw it. And think it’s a gross violation of his privacy. If you do receive it, delete it rather than forward it further. I did."
Rishi Kapoor's funeral was held yesterday in Mumbai. (Also Read: Rishi Kapoor Passes Away: Saira Banu Pens Heartfelt Note, ‘Rishi Always Kept Dilip Kumar And Raj Kapoor’s Bond Alive’)
