In 2000, Rakesh was shot at by gangsters for refusing extortion money. He drove himself to the nearest hospital with a bullet in his abdomen.
Yes, he’s a survivor.
Says the Krissh director, “The trick is not to let the setbacks bog you down. Remember, the more God tests you, the stronger you get. In 2020, I lost my best friend Chintu (Rishi Kapoor) to cancer. We both had cancer, though of different kinds. I was a hundred per cent cured, touchwood. Health comes first. And this is what I told Chintu also. Both of us had cancer, though of different kinds. Sadly, I couldn’t attend his last rites because of my own health condition.”
