Rishi Kapoor no more: Bollywood mourns its darling 'Chintu'

Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor will be remembered for a lot of things — his body of work, the songs of his movies, the effortless romance, and his smile. Always exuding warmth, even when he wasn't happy, Rishi's loss will ensure Bollywood never remains the same again. The 67-year-old breathed his last this morning and soon Bollywood stars went into grief.

This is utterly tragic and incomprehensible: Vicky

Absolutely shattered and heart broken to wake up to the news of the loss of RishiJi, one of the liveliest persons amongst us. The last time when I met him in NY, he was fighting the battle like a boss, with a smile on his face. This is utterly tragic and incomprehensible. RIP💔

Rahul said Rishi will be missed, Tharoor remembered his school-mate

Like cine stars, politicians too remembered Rishi. Congress' Rahul Gandhi called it a bad week for Indian cinema. "A wonderful actor, with a huge fan following across generations, he will be greatly missed. My condolences to his family, friends & fans all over the world, at this time of grief," he tweeted. And Rahul's party colleague Shashi Tharoor remembered his senior school-mate.

Twitter Post
Here is Tharoor's tweet

Saddened to hear that my senior schoolmate at Mumbai's CampionSchool, Rishi Kapoor, whom i competed with in "inter-class dramatics" in 1967-68, has gone to a better world. From the romantic hero of "Bobby"to the mature character actor of his last films, he evolved remarkably. RIP pic.twitter.com/9eyzE0qP38
