Rishi Kapoor makes a confession about Manhattan, talks about 'freedom' and 'getting back home'

As his homecoming countdown is nearing, veteran actor Rishi Kapoor is reminiscing his time in India which he confessed in his latest tweet.

It has been almost 10 months that the actor has been in New York seeking treatment for an unknown health condition and the actor seemed to miss watching the sky in the "concrete jungle".

"Confession. Living in this concrete jungle (Manhattan) for so long,you don't get to see much of the sky," the actor shared in his tweet. However, he took a stroll by a riverside a day ago where he was able to gaze at the sky after long and what reminded him of home was an "aircraft" flying above. "Yesterday was by the riverside, saw and heard an aircraft soar above. A visual and sound so common back home, loved that annoyance. I guess it meant freedom and getting back home," Rishi wrote in the tweet.

In an interview with a daily, Rishi Kapoor confessed saying “I miss work more than ever now. I’ve never had such a big break in my life and I’ve been working for 45 years." He also said that by the time he returns, it will be 11 long months. He clarified that he feels fresh and charged up to face the camera. He also hopes he hasn't forgotten acting. He also shared his fears and said that he doesn't know whether his work will be welcomed or trashed by the audience. "When I was going through treatment, I had a few blood transfusions. And I told Neetu that I hope with the new blood, I haven’t forgotten acting,” Rishi was quoted in an interview.

Apparently, the actor can't wait to come back home. However, to keep away his homesickness, a slew of celebrities from the celluloid world had paid their visits to Rishi. And the latest ones joining the bandwagon were Riteish Deshmukh and wife Genelia Deshmukh.

They were accompanied by veteran actor Anupam Kher who is currently shooting in New York City. From Arjun Kapoor to Alia Bhatt, all the big names that one can think of had visited the actor in NYC.
