In a recent interview with a newswire, Riddhima shared an emotional story, revealing that her father Rishi Kapoor contacted her two days before his death but she was unable to answer. "He attempted to phone me two days before this incident. He left me a missed call that I still have on my phone. That was his last missed call to me, and I thought... I wish I'd taken that. After that, he was unable to speak because he was in the hospital," she said. "I called him after that, but he couldn't talk," she added.
