Bollywood Desk: A prayer meet was held for Rishi Kapoor in Mumbai on Saturday. Ranbir Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor organised the meet at their home. A photo from the meet featuring the mother and son with a garlanded photo of Rishi Kapoor is going viral on social media.

In the viral photo, Ranbir is seen wearing a turban with red tilak on his forehead. Neetu Kapoor is wearing a white kurta with a dupatta.

The late actor's daughter, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, who reached Mumbai from Delhi on Saturday evening, couldn't attend the prayer meet. Riddhima was in Delhi when her father died in Mumbai's HN Reliance Hospital on April 30. She couldn't get the permission to fly down to Mumbai to attend her father's last rites due to the ongoing lockdown. However, she sought permission from Delhi Police to travel by road and left for Mumbai on Friday. She reached Mumbai with her daughter Samara on Saturday.

After a two-year long battle with leukemia, Rishi Kapoor breathed his last on Thursday (April 30). He was 67. The mortal remains of the late actor were directly taken to Chandanwadi Crematorium from the hospital for his cremation. Only a few people were allowed to attend the funeral.

Kareena Kapoor Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Alia Bhatt, Armaan Jain, Aadar Jain, Rima Jain, Manoj Jain, Randhir Kapoor, Rajeev Kapoor and Kunal Kapoor, were among the family members who attended the funeral.
