Bollywood
Diwali
celebrations
are
one
of
the
biggest
events
of
the
year
in
the
film
industry.
Actors
and
veterans
of
the
industry
gather
under
one
roof
decked
up
in
their
finest
outfits,
putting
their
best
foot
forward.
Fans
also
get
a
chance
to
see
their
favourite
stars
together
off-screen,
socialising
and
having
fun.
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
Ekta
Kapoor
are
known
for
throwing
lavish
Diwali
parties
every
year.
However,
due
to
the
Coronavirus
pandemic,
the
parties
have
taken
a
back
seat.
Last
month,
reports
suggested
that
there
will
be
no
Diwali
celebration
this
year
at
Jeetendra,
Tusshar
and
Ekta
Kapoor's
house
because
of
Rishi
Kapoor's
death.
Now,
actor-producer
Tusshar
Kapoor
has
confirmed
the
reports
citing
the
pandemic
as
well.
A
report
in
Mumbai
Mirror
quoted
Tusshar
as
saying,
"Unlike
every
year,
there
will
be
no
big
Diwali
bash
at
our
residence
because
of
the
sad
demise
of
our
very
dear
family
friend,
Rishi
Kapoor
ji,
and
of
course
the
pandemic."
Rishi
Kapoor
Passed
Away
On
April
30,
2020
Notably,
Rishi
Kapoor
passed
away
earlier
this
year
on
April
30,
2020.
The
actor's
death
shocked
the
country,
especially
the
film
fraternity.
The
67-year-old
actor
had
been
battling
leukaemia
for
two
years
and
was
also
admitted
to
Sir
HN
Reliance
Foundation
Hospital
before
his
death.
It
has
also
been
reported
that
the
Bachchans
too
will
not
be
hosting
a
bash
this
year
due
to
Rishi
Kapoor's
demise.
Tusshar
On
How
Kapoors
Will
Celebrate
Diwali
Coming
back
to
Tusshar
Kapoor,
the
Golmaal
actor
added
that
this
year,
the
Kapoors
are
all
about
spending
the
festival
of
lights
with
family.
"It's
festivities
and
celebrations
with
just
the
family.
I
have
been
pretty
occupied
with
our
film
which
was
released
yesterday.
Also,
my
son
is
on
vacation,
so
I
am
spending
a
lot
of
time
of
with
him."
Tusshar
Kapoor
Is
Looking
Forward
To
Spending
Time
With
Family
"This
Diwali
is
indeed
a
happy
Diwali
but
with
a
difference,
where
minimalism
will
take
precedence.
However,
the
fervour
will
be
kept
alive
as
we
will
spend
it
at
home
with
our
family," he
added.
