Rishi Kapoor reveals how Ranbir Kapoor forced him into an aircraft and flew to the US with him for cancer treatment

Rishi Kapoor has been in New York for the last nine months. He is getting his cancer treatment completed. Since then, he has been visited by many B-town celebs. He has said that he is missing home and wishes to return soon. Recently, he opened up about how he wants to get back in front of the camera.

In a recent interview with Times of India, he said, “In 45 years of my career, I have never taken such a long break. It makes me think that sometimes, God takes the decisions for you that you don’t. I haven’t boarded a flight for the past nine-and-a-half months. I haven’t stepped out of NYC.”

Rishi Kapoor was excited that finally, he will be taking a break. He said, “I am planning to go to the Hamptons tomorrow, it’s about three hours’ drive from here. For the first time in nine months, I’ll be taking a break and going to the beach. Thankfully my children, friends, family and well-wishers are with me.”

He was also asked about what his reaction was when he got to know about the disease. He said, “There was no time to react. I was shooting in Delhi. I was on the sixth day shoot of a new film, when my son (Ranbir) and a close family associate came to Delhi, spoke to my producers and explained the problem. By evening, they got me to Mumbai and soon after, they flew me to New York. I had no time to react or introspect. My son literally forced me into the aircraft and flew here with me. The acceptance comes gradually.”

He also spoke about how his family has been supportive of him all through his treatment. He said, “They have been very supportive. Ranbir keeps coming here every five-six weeks. He has been here four-five times at least. Whenever he gets time off from his work, he comes here. My daughter and grand-daughter (Samara) just left this morning.”
