Even though she had left her career, she never really got outside the loop of the film business because of her sasural. In Rishi Kapoor's memoir, Khullam Khulla, Neetu had revealed that she was never jealous or felt anxious about Rishi Kapoor's co-stars, but once she had given her feedback on his on-screen kissing style as she was very unimpressed.
Recalling the incident, Neetu Kapoor had shared that it was during the film, Sagar, starring Rishi Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia. In the film, the duo had a few kissing scenes, and the late actor was quite anxious about how his wife would react to it. He had even thought Neetu would feel insecure, which made him even more nervous. After watching the film, Neetu gave her feedback and had shared:
“(Rishi) was convinced I’d pounce on him as soon as the screening was over. So he waited nervously for my reaction while I sat through the film quietly and afterwards, got into the car without a word. Then I turned to him and said, ‘Bob, I’m so ashamed of you. How could you have been such a bad kisser? I expected you to be cooler, more with it.’ I could see him almost pass out with relief.”

Further in the memoir, Neetu had revealed in the afterword that Rishi Kapoor used to talk about anything and everything to Neetu, even about the actresses whom he used to like. Sharing how he used to confess to her, Neetu Kapoor had said:
“He used to drink his whisky and get high every evening. In that state, he always got a lot of things off his chest. Without realizing that it was his wife he was confiding in and not a male buddy, he would disclose everything about the girl he was interested in.”
Well, Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor were surely meant for each other. For the unversed, they were married to each other for more than 40 years.
