Randhir Kapoor in an interview with Etimes denied rumours of him suffering from dementia. He said that he and his friend have just come back from Goa, and he is absolutely fine. For the uninitiated, in a recent interview, Ranbir Kapoor revealed that Kareena Kapoor and Karisma Kapoor's dad, Randhir is in the early stages of dementia.
Randhir said, "Aisa kuch nahi hua (Nothing of his sort has happened). Not at all. I am perfectly fine. I just had Covid sometime ago (in April 2021). Ranbir ki marzi (It's Ranbir's wish); he is entitled to say what he wants. I never said that. I am alright. In fact, I have just returned from Goa with Rahul Rawail. We were there at the Goa festival."
Recently, talking about Rishi Kapoor's last film Sharmaji Namkeen, Ranbir had said that uncle Randhir asked him to call his father and congratulate him. He said to NDTV, "I remember when my entire family saw it, my father's elder brother, my uncle Randhir Kapoor, who is going through an early stage of dementia, and he came to me after the film and said, ‘Tell dad that he was amazing in this film, and where is he, let’s call him'. Art crosses boundaries of medical conditions, issues, conflicts and a good piece of storytelling is what stands tall. Sharmaji Namkeen really embodies that."
