This is the first time that the Kapoor family directly comments on the nature of Rishi Kapoor's disease, although the wife of the actor, Neetu Kapoor, hinted that he had received a diagnosis of cancer in his New Year message.
"Happy new year 2019 … No resolution that wishes this year! Less pollution, less traffic! The hope of a future cancer is only a sign of the zodiac! Good health" she had shared on Instagram with a picture of her family.

That day, director Rahul Rawail said that Rishi Kapoor had no cancer.

The filmmaker shared a photo with Rishi Kapoor on Facebook and wrote: "RISHI KAPOOR (CHINTU) is CANCER WITHOUT CANCER!"

Rishi Kapoor is in treatment in New York since September 2018 and even ignored the funeral of his mother, Krishna Raj Kapoor in October

The actor, regularly present on Twitter, kept in touch with his fans throughout his treatment and recovery.
