Four generations in the business and the Kapoor khandaan is not done yet. From the original celluloid doyen Prithviraj Kapoor to the showman Raj Kapoor and now the latest heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor, the Indian film industry would have been incomplete without the talented Kapoor family. Randhir Kapoor shares with TSI, what makes this dynasty go from strength to strength with every new generation...
The Kapoor family name was well established before you had entered the industry. What sort of expectations did you face? Was there a certain family code of conduct that you were expected to follow?
There were no dos and don’ts or any diktats that my family had laid for any of us. We are an educated and accomplished family and were well-trained to conduct ourselves. There was never a time when I felt that I had to do or not do a certain thing because my family expected me to.
Then came the generation after you where your daughters entered the industry. Were you a little apprehensive about the fact that they were entering the industry at a very young age? Was there a time when you or Babita sat them down and explained that they had to keep up the family’s name?
I’m sure that my children have been brought up in a manner where they are aware of their responsibilities and how to conduct themselves. And I’m extremely proud of our fourth generation where Karisma, Kareena and now Ranbir have made a name for themselves. And talking about our lineage, we are all very blessed in that way. We have been able to keep up our family name for four generations now.
What is it that has enabled the Kapoors to keep the show going on since so many decades?
I think we are blessed. All we did was dedicate ourselves to the entertainment industry, starting from my grandfather (Prithviraj Kapoor). I would also say that we all have put in tremendous hard work. I think we have all given our bit of contribution to keep up the name of our dynasty.
