Rishi Kapoor To Finally Return To India, Would Celebrate 67th Birthday Here

Rishi Kapoor had left for New York almost a year ago for his treatment. He did not reveal what ailment he was suffering from, but rumours were that the actor was suffering from cancer. On 1st May, filmmaker and Rishi's friend, Rahul Rawail, shared the good news that the actor is now 100% cancer free. His fans and well wishers from all over the world were relieved, but here in India, we had still been wondering when he will return back to the country and come back home.

We might finally have an answer to that question now. According to Mumbai Mirror, the actor will return back by August end and would celebrate his 67th birthday on September 4 at home with his family.

When contacted, the actor said, "Yes, I am trying to return by August end, depending on what the doctors at the hospital say. I have recovered well and I am feeling good. Must be 100% fit by the time I am back."

One of the sources close to the actor said,

“He is 100% cancer-free, and under the doctors’ observation for the time being. He is staying at a private apartment and enjoying life in the Big Apple. Being a cricket buff, he is also following the on-going cricket World Cup in England and keeps discussing the results of the matches with his friends in India."

Rishi Kapoor had tweeted earlier this year that he is craving to return back to India. “Today, I complete eight months in New York. Will I ever get home," the actor had tweeted. Looks like this wish of his will finally come true.
