Neetu Kapoor has shown enough courage since the sudden demise of her hubby, Rishi Kapoor in 2021, to stand up on her toes again. Even though people have bashed the actress for living her life to the fullest and wearing colourful colours despite being a widow, Neetu did not pay any heed to the hearsay. She made a comeback to the silver screen with the movie, Jug Jugg Jeeyo and stunned the audience with her stellar acting chops.
On the other hand, the evergreen veteran actress, Neetu became a doting saasu maa on April 14, 2022, with the intimate marriage of her son, Ranbir Kapoor to Alia Bhatt. As the couple is expecting their first child anytime soon, Neetu has been waiting with bated breath to welcome the Junior Kapoor to the family. Many people around her believe that it would be the rebirth of her late hubby, Rishi Kapoor, in the form of her grandchild.

Earlier, in an interview with PTI, Neetu Kapoor had mentioned that once, she was invited to a big event after Rishi’s demise, where she was supposed to receive an award. But, she felt underconfident and awkward gracing an award function without her husband. Hence, she decided not to attend the function as his void of him still keeps her from attending public events. In her words:
"Even today, when I'm called for a function, I can't go. I can go for a shoot, but I can't go to a film function without him. Recently, I was invited to a big event, where they wanted to give me an award but I cannot go without him. I feel awkward going alone. I still don't have that confidence. I need my son or my husband with me. Maybe it'll take me time to get used to that part. As an actor, I can go and work because there's my team, they're with me and so I feel okay. But not otherwise, not now."

In an old interaction with News18, Neetu Kapoor got candid about the most challenging phase of her life when the soul of her better half, Rishi Kapoor had left his body and had made her feel devastated. The charming actress had been struggling from major depression and sadness until she had decided to keep herself occupied with work. She had stated:
"This whole phase of going back to work has helped me get out of depression. Working on Jugjugg Jeeyo has been a cathartic experience. Apart from that I also did two reality shows which helped me come and interact with the audience. I am really enjoying my time."
