Ranbir
Kapoor
recently
raised
concern
for
veteran
actor
Randhir
Kapoor's
health
when
he
said
during
an
interview,
that
his
uncle
is
in
early
dementia.
However,
now
reports
have
revealed
that
Randhir
has
denied
the
claims
and
said
he
is
doing
fine.
In
an
interview
with
ETimes,
Randhir
Kapoor
assertively
and
emphatically
said
that
he's
fine.
Reacting
to
Ranbir's
statement,
the
veteran
star
said,
"Aisa
kuch
nahi
hua.
Not
at
all.
I
am
perfectly
fine.
I
just
had
COVID
sometime
ago
(in
April
2021)."
When
asked
why
Ranbir
had
made
such
a
comment,
he
added,
"Ranbir
ki
marzi
(Ranbir's
wish).
He
is
entitled
to
say
what
he
wants."
Notably,
Ranbir
told
NDTV
about
Randhir's
reaction
after
watching
his
late
father
Rishi
Kapoor's
last
film
Sharmaji
Namkeen,
which
released
on
March
31.
He
said,
"My
uncle
Randhir
Kapoor,
who
is
going
through
an
early
stage
of
dementia,
and
he
came
to
me
after
the
film,
said,
'Tell
dad
that
he
is
amazing,
and
where
is
he,
let's
call
him'.
Art
crosses
boundaries
of
medical
conditions...
And
a
good
piece
of
storytelling
really
embodies
that."
Randhir
clarified
on
the
same
saying,
"I
never
said
that.
I
am
alright.
In
fact,
I
have
just
returned
from
Goa
with
Rahul
Rawail.
We
were
there
at
the
Goa
festival."
For
the
unversed,
Rishi
Kapoor
passed
away
after
battling
leukemia
for
years.
The
actor
breathed
his
last
on
April
30,
2020
at
the
age
of
67.
However,
the
actor
couldn't
complete
the
filming
of
Sharmaji
Namkeen
during
his
final
days.
Post
his
demise,
Paresh
Rawal
had
stepped
in
to
complete
the
remaining
portions
of
the
film's
shoot.
Sharmaji
Namkeen
has
garnered
a
lot
of
love
from
fans
and
critics
alike.

film
is
currently
streaming
on
Amazon
Prime
