Riddhima Kapoor Sahni has been living with her mother Neetu Kapoor at their Mumbai home after her father's demise. The mother-daughter duo also adopted a pet after Rishi Kapoor passed away.

For the uninitiated, Riddhima attended her father Rishi Kapoor's final rites through a video call. As the actor died during the global lockdown period, the permission was denied by the government authorities. But nothing could stop her; Riddhima travelled by road after securing a movement pass back when the entire country was under the initial stage of lockdown. Rishi Kapoor's last rites were performed at the Chandanwadi Crematorium in Kalbadevi, Mumbai, near the H.N Reliance hospital where he was admitted.

This is not the first time Riddhima Kapoor Sahni has shared a picture of her father, she has been pouring her heart out on social media ever since Rishi Kapoor passed away. The actor has left behind millions of memories for all his fans and Cinema lovers.
