The untimely deaths of iconic actors Irrfan Khan and Rishi Kapoor came in a shocker to the Indian film fraternity. People are yet to digest the fact that these two are no more. It is very tough for their families and colleagues from the industry to believe the fact of their demise. Bollywood star Amitabh Bachchan is also yet to come out of this shock. The actor worked with both Rishi and Irrfan. He also shares a great bonding with them. Thus, it was a heartbreaking moment for Bachchan to accept this fact. This morning, Amitabh shared an emotional post explaining the hard time he is facing due to these two deaths.
Amitabh stated that grief will be more if we lose younger ones than the elder ones. His tweet read, "The death of an elder celebrity vs death of a younger. The grief of the latter more intense than that of the former. Why? Because you lament the loss of opportunity in the latter. The unrealized possibilities." His tweet reminds us that it was more of a personal loss of Mr. Bachchan. Amitabh shared the screen with Rishi Kapoor in films like Ajooba, Amar Akbar Anthony, Kabhi Kabhie and 102 Not Out. Both Amitabh and Irrfan have acted together in the film Piku. Amitabh also shared his pictures along with Irrfan and Rishi, along with this tweet.
Irrfan and Rishi were suffering from cancer from the last two years. While Irrfan lost his life due to the colon infection, Rishi Kapoor breathed his last due to leukemia.
