The late actor Rishi Kapoor may no longer be with us, but his family continues to honor his memory on special occasions. Recently, Riddhima Kapoor shared a heartfelt throwback photo on her social media along with a touching note dedicated to her father.

She noted that Samara, her daughter, has grown up, and baby Raha resembles her late grandfather. Riddhima mentioned how she will always cherish the memories they shared and how much the family misses him, with their love for him deepening with each passing day.
