Rishi Kapoor has a very straight-forward person, both on social media and in real life. In a recent interview with Mumbai Mirror, the veteran actor spoke about Ranbir’s relationship rumours with Alia Bhatt.
“It’s Ranbir’s life. Who he wants to get married to is his prerogative,” he said. “Neetu likes her, I like her, Ranbir likes her. Get it? I can’t be judgmental. After all, my uncles Shammiji (Shammi Kapoor) and Shashiji (Shashi Kapoor) and I chose our life partners. Ranbir is entitled to choose his,” Mumbai Mirror quoted him saying.
Earlier, Rishi had also expressed his admiration for Alia in an interview with Hindustan Times. “I admire someone like Alia Bhatt, who takes up challenging roles like in Highway (2014) and Raazi. It’s very difficult at this tender age to carry a film on their shoulders and only an actor can do that. Also, one has to be lucky enough to get such parts. Alia has been lucky and of course, she has the talent to,” the daily quoted.
Not just Rishi Kapoor but Alia Bhatt’s father Mahesh Bhatt had als spoken to Hindustan Times about their relationship and said, “It’s very obvious that [Ranbir-Alia] are making no bones about talking to people about them being intimate. And I don’t belong to that category of parents who’d advise their children about their personal choices. Alia is an adult and it’s a matter that she has to resolve. It’s their life, their space. I respect and admire them for choosing to talk to the world when, and if, they want to do.”
