In the recent episode, Ranbir Kapoor opened up about the criticism he received from his father, Rishi Kapoor.

Getting candid in the video, he says, “I remember my father used to tell me that the films I do are good films, but they’re not going to make me a national star. Thankfully my films worked, the audience appreciated it, but now I understand what he was trying to say. Even today when I look at my favourite heroes, I always look at them from a low angle. I never see them as equal to me. They are always larger than life, both on and off-screen. If I can be even two percent of the heroes they are, my life will be set.”Rishi Kapoor was one of the most successful and generation-defining actors of the ’70s and ’80s. He continued to work, right till his death in 2020.
