A week ago,Neetu Kapoor celebrated her 64th birthday. The actor is an inspiration of how to embrace life without complaints. Presenting her story from the very beginning.
When I met Neetu Kapoor in the late seventies, she was Neetu Singh, a highly in demand young actor. She lived in a two-bedroom apartment at Sun Set Heights on Pali Hill, Mumbai with her mother Rajee Kaur and they mostly lived out of suitcases because Neetu was forever shooting outdoors. Over a period of time, as she became more successful, she bought a bigger car and moved into a duplex flat, Shailaja Apartments.
Her filmmakers repeated her in projects because she was professional and her co-stars described her as uncomplicated. Rajee Kaur said she was a responsible daughter and Neetu confessed she was head over heels in love with co-star, Rishi Kapoor. Unlike actresses of today, Neetu never disguised her attraction for her hero, even though Rishi Kapoor never acknowledged the relationship in public.
