The video features numerous memorable moments, capturing the late actor's witty stage presence.

It also includes the reactions from the star-studded guests, including the likes of Ranbir Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, and Subhash Ghai.

Heaping praise on his father, the 'Animal' star said, "You know, a man who's been in the industry for 40 years now and all the anecdotes and all his experiences and to share it with such a large audience, I think it's a wonderful idea."

Neetu Kapoor could also be seen seated in the audience, laughing her heart out as Rishi Kapoor took centre-stage.

Reacting to the post, fans as well as celebrities were seen remembering the late actor on his birth anniversary. Sanjay Kapoor wrote, "Happy birthday, Chintu. You will always be missed. So fortunate to work with you in luck by chance."

The star couple's daughter, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, also took to her Instagram stories and paid a tribute to her father.

Rishi and Neetu got married in January 1980 and were blessed with two children, Riddhima and Ranbir.

Back in the 70s and 80s, the couple starred in several hits together, like Amar Akbar Anthony, Khel Khel Mein, Rafoo Chakkar, Kabhi Kabhie, Besharam, and many more, inspiring generations with both their on-screen and off-screen romance.
