“With hard work and good luck, everything will be alright.”
A video of the late Rishi Kapoor has gone viral on social media featuring a member of the hospital staff serenading the actor as he lay in bed.
Unfortunately, Rishi passed away on Thursday, 30 April 2020, after a two-year-long battle with leukaemia.
His shocking demise came a day after Bollywood actor Irrfan Khan passed away on Wednesday, 29 April 2020.
In the video, a frail Rishi Kapoor can be seen smiling as the male staff member sings to him.
The young man is seen singing a beautiful rendition of ‘Tere Dard Se Dil’ by popular singer Kumar Sanu.
The song was also a part of Rishi Kapoor’s 1992 film Deewana. The late star starred opposite Shah Rukh Khan and the late Divya Bharti.
Rishi can also be seen wiping tears off his face with a towel as he listens to the song.
At the end of the video, Rishi places his hand on the man’s head and blesses him with success. He said:
“You have my blessing. May you get all the success and hard work. Fame and reputation will come to you only if you work hard.
“With hard work and good luck, everything will be alright.”
