In a recent interview with entrepreneur Nikhil Kamath, Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor shared insights into his approach to fame and public interactions, attributing his grounded demeanor to lessons learned from observing his late father, Rishi Kapoor. The conversation revealed Ranbir’s reflections on the Kapoor family’s legacy and how it has shaped his own career and public persona.
Ranbir, who is known for his approachable and humble nature, recounted how growing up in a family of actors and filmmakers exposed him to both their successes and failures. He noted, “I have realized this very early on because I have grown up in a film family and I have seen so many successful people. But at the same time, I have seen so many failures, too. My family has generations of successful actors and those who have failed. I know why they failed. I studied them. I was noticing it from a very young age.”
The actor specifically addressed the impact of his father’s interactions with fans. Rishi Kapoor, known for his distinctive style, was sometimes perceived as rude to fans seeking autographs and photographs. Ranbir recalled instances where his father’s dismissive responses led to visible disappointment among fans. He shared, “I would see the fan’s face and them looking at my father with so much of disdain and disappointment. If somebody wants a picture with me or an autograph, I’m more than happy to oblige.”
Ranbir’s commitment to being more approachable and accommodating contrasts with these earlier experiences. He expressed his determination to be available for fans, stating, “If somebody wants a picture with me or an autograph, I’m more than happy to oblige.” This attitude has earned him praise from colleagues and fans alike, reflecting his dedication to maintaining positive public interactions.
