MUMBAI: Bollywood is yet to find a replacement for Rishi Kapoor's charm, which he enjoyed in the the prime of his career. He then transitioned to author-backed roles during his second innings.
Rishi, who made his acting debut at the age of 15 in Mera Naam Joker, became an overnight sensation with Bobby. What followed was a filmography comprising hits like Khel Khel Mein, Kabhi Kabhie, Amar Akbar Anthony, Hum Kisise Kum Naheen, Kabhi Kabhi, Prem Rog, Heena, Damini, Bol Radha Bol, and Deewana.
He had a huge fan following and was among the finest gems we had in the industry.
