Ranbir Kapoor - News, Latest NEWS
|
Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s ‘Saawariya’ The newest Kapoor in the town, to be launched in a BIG way, is Ranbir Kapoor. While it is difficult to gauge his talent at this stage, his visiting card reads: the son of Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh. Both are extremely talented actors. The name is borrowed from his grand father Raj Kapoor. Ra's full name was Ranbirraj Kapoor. The producer launching him is another Punjabi and another romantic Yash Chopra. 
Rishi Kapoor might have done it but I guess he is not confident after the lackluster response to his otherwise good film `Aa Ab Laut Chalen`, and is not into film making any more. Randhir too is over the hill, busy in the oldest hobby of all the Kapoors, drowning himself in booze. In any case, though Raj Kapoor launched son Rishi Kapoor twice (in Mera Naam Joker, where he got the national award as a child actor and Bobby) but Kapoors, as a rule do not launch their own. Shammi Kapoor and Shashi Kapoor had to climb the hard way. Shashi Kapoor even did C grade mythological films. Ditto for Randhir Kapoor who launched himself as a director and actor in Kal Aaj Aur Kal . Karisma got her first break in Qaidi and struggled her way up doing bawdier scenes (remember khatiya sarkailo?) in Govinda starrer. Kareena got a better debut because, by then Karisma had made a lot of moolah and, more important, a name for herself. But here too it wasn't the family – against the very idea of their daughters working in films – but outsiders who launched her. First was Rakesh Roshan who signed and then dropped her from Kaho Na…Pyar Hai, and the second was J P Dutta who launched her along with Abhishek Bachchan in Refugee . To return to Ranbir, he was to make
his debut in a Sanjay Leela Bhansali film. But a self respecting Kapoor
couldn't tolerate the humiliations Bhansali heaped on him. He walked out
in the waiting arm of Yash Chopra. The film, to be produced after Fanna
, will be directed by Aditya Chopra. This may be a film worth watching.
It is not clear who the leading lady is. Anil Kapoor's daughter Sonam would
have been ideal.
