Mukesh Bhatt opened up about the loss of Rishi Kapoor and touched base on his irreplaceability as an actor

Filmmaker Mukesh Bhatt wore his heart on his sleeve speaking at length about the death of Rishi Kapoor and its impact on the film industry at large.

During an interview with Spotboye, Mukesh was quoted saying, “He was a man who like Bhatt saab (Mahesh Bhatt) and I, never minced words. He said things not to down people. He said things what he felt. But what’s wrong with that? I have so many memories about him. And so many times, good memories tend to give you pain.”

“He always used to say, ‘Arre yaar, leave it. Even this shall pass away. Maze le. Let’s enjoy the moment’. I hope that we all start thinking like him. You can’t make a xerox copy of Chintu. I am happy and lucky that I met him in my life. You know what? People whom you genuinely love never die for you. Rishi will live in my heart forever.”

For the unversed, Rishi Kapoor died at the age of 67, after a long and strenuous two year battle with leukemia.
