Is Rishi Kapoor hiding his illness?

Sometimes, one just has to respect a man’s right to privacy, especially when it involvesthe subject of serious illnesses. Nonetheless, it comes as a surprise to know that Rishi Kapoor has chosen to not speak publicly about his illness. In the recent past, ladies connected with the entertainment businesslike Sonali Bendre and Tahira Kashyap (wife of Ayushmann Khurrana) have addressed their ailments with precious dignity.

A source close to the Kapoor family says, “It is indeed cancer. Strangely, Chintuji is in denial mode. Making matters worse is Dabbooji(Rishi’s elder brother) giving out statements refuting the true nature of the illness. Why not tackle this with honesty? Especially since Chintuji has always been so frank and fearless.”
