The past year and a half has been a tough one for the Kapoor family with , Rishi Kapoor's Ritu Nanda Rajiv and Kapoor's sudden death. Now add to that Ranbir Kapoor's COVID-19 illness it has been a tough going for the Kapoor family.

Now, in her interview with Mid -Day, the veteran actress said, “I did anulom-vilom and kapaal bhaarti at least which helped me a lot. I listen to music on my headphone or talk to someone while walking for 30 minutes. My family was my biggest strength. For immunity, I had lots of healthy drinks like kaadhas, giloy (moonseed leaves) water, chai, amla with beetroot, and ginger juice. When I got infected I had lost the sense of smell for three weeks and as the smell started coming back, I was tested negative.”
Continuing further she said, “My diet became disciplined during this time. I was having proper food and no cheat diets were included. It was not easy to start again after Rishi passed away. I gathered the courage to work and my children Ranbir Kapoor, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni supported me behind my decision.” The actress also said that when I can fight COVID at the age of 60 then why not others. Earlier Neetu had informed that Ranbir has been quarantining ever since he has tested positive while all of his personal and professional plans have been put on hold till he recovers.
