Actor Randhir Kapoor took a stroll down memory lane while promoting the recently-released memoir on his late father Raj Kapoor. Moreover, he said that he misses his late younger brothers, Rishi Kapoor and Rajiv Kapoor, on the special occasion. However, the memoir titled ‘Raj Kapoor: The Master At Work’ was released on his 97th birth anniversary, December 14.
Randhir told ANI, “This is a very difficult question for me to answer. I come from a very close-knit family, and I was extremely close to my two brothers and after the death of my father, I took the responsibility for RK and my two brothers were my two hands–my left hand and my right hand.” Further added, “I am very sad to say that I have lost both of them. I have lost both my hands and this loss will never be fulfilled…” adding tearfully “let it be, it’s alright.”
Randhir also opened up about the legacy that it will be always be continued by his nephew Ranbir Kapoor, daughters Kareena Kapoor Khan and Karisma Kapoor, and the upcoming generations.
Mr. Kapoor also said, “I do not have a single memorial of my father right now, all his certificates, awards; everything was burnt in that massive fire. We designed everything in a very special manner to showcase his belongings, but nothing could be saved.” Moreover, he added, “I just have a crockery set that he brought for 1956 film ‘Jagte Raho’ with me because that happened to be in my office, and my office was saved, but what was to be… was to be and that vacuum cannot be filled.”
However, the memoir ‘Raj Kapoor: The Master At Work’ was written by filmmaker Rahul Rawail.
