Mumbai: Actor Taapsee Pannu has opened up about different shades of Rishi Kapoor's personality which most people aren't aware of.
The Pink star shared screen space with the late actor Rishi Kapoor in Mulk and Chashme Baddoor.
In a recent interaction, Taapsee told to a media outlet: "Most know him as a hot-blooded Punjabi man, which he was. But you have to spend time him to know the other side. I had the fortune in Mulk. His compliments sounded like he’s scolding you, but that’s how it is. I could connect with it."
Regretting Rishi Kapoor's death, Taapsee said: "It’s a feeling of disbelief, maybe when I don’t see him at industry parties eventually it will seep in, but right now it hasn’t. I didn’t see it coming. He messaged me for Thappad, it’s unbelievable right now that he’s gone. I’m lucky to have sat down and talked to him beyond films, he’s a brilliant storyteller. And I will always cherish those memories."

Earlier the Thappad actor took to Instagram and condoled the actor’s death. She wrote: "My most favourite picture with him. Worked with him twice n the kind of brash honest compliments this man gave have never left my heart n mind. Even in his bullying there was so much love that one couldn’t help enjoy listening to him. The most entertaining stories came from him. the only costar of mine who could beat me in being 'brutally' honest. Sir humaari hat-trick reh gayi. I’m sure I will meet him somewhere n this hug shall be repeated with the same smile on our faces."
