Rishi Kapoor seeks help from Indian Consulate in New York for casting vote in Lok Sabha elections
Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor, undergoing medical treatment in the USA, on Sunday sought help from the Indian Consulate in New York for casting vote in the Lok Sabha elections. "Called the Indian Consulate's office here to enquire if there was any facility for people like us to vote (away from home)," Rishi tweeted.
But after finding out that there is no such facility for people living abroad temporarily, the actor urged citizens to "not forget to vote wherever and whenever you have to".
Recently, wife Neetu Kapoor, who has always been by her husband Rishi Kapoor’s side through thick and thin, shared some lovely clicks of herself with Rishi and son Ranbir Kapoor. “That amazing feeling in your lows when there is Positivity Happiness Love and that Wink”, Neetu Kapoor captioned the pictures.
While talking to an entertainment portal, Rishi Kapoor said, “My treatment is on, hopefully I will recover soon and God willing I will return. The procedure is long and tedious and one needs immense patience which unfortunately is not one of my virtue."
Ranbir Kapoor also stayed with his father for a brief period in the USA. They were joined by his girlfriend Alia Bhatt who celebrated the New Year’s Eve with the Kapoor family. The pictures that were shared by Neetu Kapoor speculated wedding rumours for Alia and Ranbir.
Last year, the "Mulk" actor had shared with his fans the information that he was flying to the USA for medical treatment.
"Hello all! I am taking a short leave of absence from work to go to America for some medical treatment. I urge my well-wishers not to worry or unnecessarily speculate. It's been 45 years 'plus' of wear and tear at the movies. With your love and good wishes, I will be back soon," Rishi tweeted in September 2018.
The 66-year-old actor was last seen on silver screen in a cameo in "Manto", directorial venture of noted actor Nandita Das.
