Rishi Kapoor’s Proud Papa Moment 🎬
So, once upon a time in the land of Bollywood, the late Rishi Kapoor couldn’t contain his fatherly pride after watching his son, Ranbir Kapoor, in the film "Rockstar." This cinematic gem, released back in 2011, was a game-changer for Ranbir’s career. Oh, the nostalgia! It raked in a cool 108.71 crores on a 60 crore budget and had Nargis Fakhri sharing the screen with our Rockstar.
Apparently, Rishi was so thrilled that he decided to dial up journalist Mayank Shekhar, who had penned a review of the film. And what did Rishi say? "Aakhir beta to mera hai" (After all, he is my son). Well, duh, Rishi. We never doubted it. 🙄
The Review That Rocked Bollywood
Fast forward to a recent interview where journalist Mayank Shekhar was chatting with director Imtiaz Ali on "Sit With Hitlist." Mayank shared that his review of "Rockstar" had praised Ranbir’s performance, saying there hadn’t been a star like him since Amitabh Bachchan and Hrithik Roshan. Big shoes to fill, wouldn’t you say? 🤷♀️
This glowing review prompted Rishi Kapoor to call Mayank not once, not twice, but thrice! When Mayank finally answered, Rishi, in true Kapoor fashion, expressed his pride. Ah, Bollywood fathers and their dramatic flair!
Ranbir and His Fearsome Father
In a somewhat somber twist, Ranbir Kapoor has previously opened up about his relationship with his dad. He described Rishi as short-tempered but fundamentally a good person. Ranbir admitted he never dared to look his father in the eye, always standing before him with his head bowed. Oh, the joys of growing up in a Bollywood dynasty! 😅

Nisha’s Nutshell:
So, what’s the takeaway from this Bollywood saga? Never underestimate the power of a father’s pride, especially when he’s a Bollywood legend. And for all you budding actors out there, remember: no matter how many crores your film makes, you’re still just "beta" to your dad. 😜
