When Rishi was asked about his health and how he was doing now, he said, “Thanks to the prayers and good wishes of my family, friends and fans, I am perfect now.” Although, he didn’t want to get into the details of the kind of cancer he had, he explained that he is under treatment still and will not be back home for another 11 months. He has long gaps between these remaining treatments and he would rather be back home than stay there at New York. “It’s been nine months and 16 days—I know since I have been counting the days—that I have been away. I really miss home,” he said. He also denied the speculation that he will be back in September for his birthday.

In the interview Rishi also said that he is very grateful to all the people that came to NYC to visit him. “It’s because of the love of those who have dropped by to visit me here. I feel so overjoyed,” said Rishi in the Mumbai Mirror interview. He also expressed how his wife Neetu Singh Kapoor has been a solid rock all this while along with Ranbir Kapoor and Riddhima Kapoor Sahni to help him through this difficult time.
