The demise of Rishi Kapoor last year was a huge blow to the Hindi film industry. One person who has been vocal in letting her feeling of loss being known is actor Raveena Tandon. She had shared a close bond with Rishi Kapoor and his family. On May 11, 2021, the actor took to Instagram to share an unseen picture from Rishi Kapoor’s wedding. This picture is apparently one that Rishi Kapoor had asked Raveena Tandon for and she could not find it while he was still alive.

The picture itself is an old monochromatic picture that has experienced the ravages of time. It is grainy and not all too clear but the smiling faces of everyone present come through clearly. In the picture, Rishi Kapoor is standing alongside his bride Neetu Kapoor and by his leg, fans can see Raveena Tandon. She is a child in the picture who seems to be very happy to be close to her ‘Chintu uncle’. The picture also shows other stalwarts of the Hindi film industry standing around the new couple.

Alongside the picture, Raveena Tandon wrote a note which expressed her regret for not being able to find the picture earlier. She said that Rishi Kapoor had asked for the picture to be added in his autobiography but she had lost the original. She said she wished she had found the picture earlier and would have been able to give it to Rishi Kapoor. Even though she found the picture a little too late, she said she was happy to have gotten it and would always treasure it. She also thanked Juhi Babbar who had actually found the copy of the picture and shared it with Raveena Tandon.
