was
an
extension
of
our

Rishi's
demise,
Riddhima
stood
like
a
strong
pillar
by
her
mother
Neetu's
side.
In
May
last
year,
she
had
posted

with
her
mom
and
brother
Ranbir
Kapoor
and
captioned
it
as,
"Got
your
back
ma.
Your
pillars."
Meanwhile,

Kapoor
had
opened
up
about
how
she
is
coping
with
Rishi's
death
and
said,
"I
had
gathered
courage
to
work
after
Rishi
passed
away
in
2020.
I
told
myself
that
work
would
help
me
get
over
my
grief.
It
was
the
only
way
to
get
on
with
life."
The
senior
actress
is
all
set
to
make
her
big
