April 30 has been a difficult day for the first family of Bollywood.

Neetu Kapoor posted the family's official statement on Instagram.
Riddhima Sahni was the apple of her father's eye.
'Papa I love you I will always love you - RIP my strongest warrior I will miss you everyday I will miss your FaceTime calls everyday! I wish I could be there to say goodbye to you! Until we meet again papa I love you - your Mushk forever', Ridhima, who could not arrive from New Delhi in time for her father's funeral, wrote.
Kareena Kapoor Khan, whose father Randhir is Rishi's elder brother, posted a throwback picture and wrote: 'The best boys I know... Papa and Chintu uncle'.
Karisma Kapoor, Kareena's elder sister, also posted a throwback picture and wrote: 'Always looking over family.. chintu uncle will miss discussing food and restaurants with you..'
Anil Kapoor -- a distant cousin of the Kapoors -- posted a throwback picture with a message.
Boney Kapoor, Anil's elder brother, also posted a collage of throwback pictures and wrote: 'Devastated. Shocked. Just reminiscing the time I was blessed to share with you. You shall always be missed. Even at this moment, just thinking about you brings a smile on my face. Condolences to the entire family. #RIPLegend #RishiKapoor'
