Ranbir Kapoor's film Jagga Jasoos released on Friday and his
act has been appreciated by all.
In an interview with a famous daily, the actor got candid
about his famous parents - Rishi and Neetu Kapoor.
"My personality is more like hers than my father's. My
sister (Riddhima) is more like my father," Ranbir disclosed to the daily.
Rishi Kapoor is known to be very vocal about his opinions particularly
on Twitter. On this, Ranbir feels like he doesn't have the openness of his
father. The actor told, "I can't be like my father. He's one of a kind.
He's so honest, which is admirable. He'll have no guilt or baggage in his life.
He'll always be a free man. We're all, at some level, hypocrites. If there's a
political question at a press conference, I'll have a hypocritical answer, or
I'll clam up, or wriggle out of it. But he won't. And he regards himself as
junta. So if he has an opinion on politics, sports, entertainment, ban on a
certain food, he will give it. He feels he has that freedom of speech.
Unfortunately, he's an actor, so that gets blown out of proportion, or gets
taken too seriously. I don't think I have that frankness, openness."
So did Ranbir grow up being closer to his mom? "I think
that's true (for kids) in most Indian families, where the father is away at work
and is a strict person. Growing up, we hardly saw our father. Back then, they
used to do two shifts a day, six movies a year. We could only see him during
holidays — in Ooty, Kashmir or Switzerland. He'd be shooting there, and we
needed a holiday, so we'd go where he was," Ranbir specified.
Firstly, there were some marital problems between Rishi and
Neetu. On whether it affected him as a child, Ranbir told, "Not at all.
Besides the problems they went through, the greater thing is how they came out
of it. I still see so much passion, love and respect between my parents. My
father is still so possessive about her. My mother is still so inquisitive
about how he's doing. It's been 38 years. So, no, I don't think there's a scar.
I feel happy when I see them together. They've found a healthy
companionship."
