Bollywood is grief depths as India mourns its second loss after the death of leading Bollywood star Rishi Kapoor passed away at the age of 67.

The Indian-born actor family announced that he has died on Thursday, after a two-year battle with leukemia.

Kapoor, who achieved considerable success in Bollywood, had been admitted to a hospital in Mumbai on Wednesday.

He had returned last September to India after undergoing treatment for leukemia in the US for nearly a year. The late actor was admitted into the hospital twice in February.

With India currently under lockdown, the late actor’s family issued a statement to urging his fans, who would have poured on to the streets in mourning under normal circumstances, to follow coronavirus social distancing rules.

Many officials, celebrities, and public figures had paid tribute to the late actor including Indian President Ram Nath Kovind, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Akshay Kumar, Kamal Haasan, Priyanka Chopra, and many others mourned the actor’s death on social media.

Rishi Kapoor’s untimely demise is shocking. An evergreen personality with an always smiling face, he was so full of life that it's difficult to believe that he is no more. A huge loss for the entertainment industry. Let us pray for his soul. Condolences to his family and friends.
