After brother Rajiv Kapoor's death in February, Randhir Kapoor used to feel lonely at his Chembur home. The veteran actor decided to move to a place close to where daughters, Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan, live in Bandra.
On Friday, Karisma and Kareena attended a puja ceremony at his new address, along with mother Babita and family, including Neetu Kapoor, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, Rima Jain, Aadar Jain and Kunal Kapoor. Kapoor lost his younger brother and actor Rajiv Kapoor on Tuesday (9 February) morning. He passed away after suffering a heart attack in Mumbai. He was 58. His last rites were conducted on the same day. His funeral was attended by family members Randhir Kapoor, Karisma Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor's wife Neetu Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni.
In an interview, while speaking about his brother's demise, the actor said, "I don't know what's happening. I was equally close to Rishi and Rajiv. I have lost four people from my family--my mother Krishna Kapoor (October 2018), eldest sister Ritu (January 14, 2020), Rishi and now Rajiv. These four were my central core, with whom I did most of my talking."
Talking about what exactly happened on Tuesday, February 9, Randhir said, "Well, I have a 24-hour nurse since I have a bit of a problem in walking due to a nerve-related issue. The nurse went to wake him up in the morning at about 7:30 am and he did not respond. She detected that his pulse was very low and dropping further. We rushed him to the hospital but all efforts to save him failed. And, now I am left alone in this house".
