'Call him Sawaariya, Rockstar or Besharam or sweet Barfi.'
'Superstar Ranbir Kapoor was born on 28th September, 1982.'
"Call me Besharam."
Superstar Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor's son..
and grandson of Indian legend Raj Kapoor.'
"Strange atmosphere, amazing sky."
"With beautiful company everything seems fun."
"The wind is playful. My heart sings slowly I swear on you."
'It is notable that Ranbir Kapoor was named after his grandpa.'
'Raj Kapoor's full name was Ranbir Raj Kapoor.'
'And in this manner the RK family got another RK.'
If I am standing here today in front of you..
..then it is only thanks to Raj Kapoor and.
I am standing here because he showed me the way and..
I hope that he is smiling from up..
..there watching my films and he feels proud of me.
"Come beloved, if we unite in this moonlit night..
..then even this deserted place will become spring."
"The sky will start vacillating."
'We will learn of some extraordinary stories from Ranbir Kapoor's life.'
'Ranbir studied in Bombay Scottish school located in Mahim, Mumbai.'
'And he has more often than not been made to stand outside the class.'
'And that is why we get to see that mischief in his films as well.'
'His mother Neetu Kapoor would cry uncontrollably thrice every year.'
'The reason being..
..that Ranbir Kapoor's report card used to come home thrice a year.'
'Seeing which her mother's heart would get jolted and she would cry.'
I feel very bad. I feel very angry.
'Ranbir Kapoor wasn't a very good student..
..but he had special interest in Mathematics and Literature.'
'And especially for the William Shakespeare play "The Merchant Of Venice".'
'Ranbir was barely a child..
..and fights between his parents led him into darkness.'
You will cry, you will repent but...but I won't return.
I am telling you I will go very far away.
Won't you stop me? - No.
All right, I am going. I will go and die.
How does it concern me? The police will arrest you.
'That was the reason Ranbir was scared of his father.'
'The two of them could never be friends.'
'But destiny created some situation..
..which brought Ranbir closer to his father Rishi Kapoor
'This was in 1999 when Rishi was directing "Aa Ab Laut Chalein".'
'And Ranbir reached to assist his father in direction.'
'Here the two of them spent quality time with each other
and even sorted out some differences.'
"Come, let us return."
'Steadily Ranbir's education went ahead.'
'He took admission in Mumbai's HR College of Commerce and Economics.'
'And then headed straight to New York..
..where he got admission in school of visual arts.'
'In this school Ranbir Kapoor learned film making and acting as well.'
'And for acting he went to Lestrasberg Theatre and Film Institute.'
'And then came darkness in his life.'
'A darkness which filled his life with light.'
'Yes. He worked as an assistant director in.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali's film "Black".'
Sanjay Bhansali gave him an opportunity in the film "Sawaariya".
'And Sonam Kapoor also made her debut with him.'
"Sawaariya.."
'This was the first Indian movie..
..which was produced by a Hollywood studio.'
'The hopes were very high.'
'Raj Kapoor's grandson was coming on the silver screen.'
'Superstar Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor's son..
..was going to leave his mark on the silver screen.'
'But it didn't meet the expectation completely.'
'Sawaariya could not live up to the expectation..
..at the box office which was expected.'
'But Ranbir Kapoor won everyone's hearts.'
'And that is the reason..
..why a big banner like Yashraj Films approached Ranbir.'
'And Ranbir Kapoor proved his star power in many films one by one.'
Whether it was "Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani".
"Rocket Singh", "Wake Up Sid" or then "Rockstar".
"Give us our right."
'And in "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani" Ranbir left everyone behind.'
"Insolent heart.."
'In the film "Barfi" Ranbir Kapoor portrayed a very different character.'
'A very severe, a very cheerful, a very sensitive Barfi.'
'Ranbir Kapoor was usually surrounded in scandals..
..especially for his romance.'
'Firstly it was known that Ranbir and Deepika are very serious..
..about each other.'
'So much so that Deepika had made a tattoo of 'R' on her neck.'
'Both of them were openly in love..
..but everything changed all of a sudden.'
'Ranbir and Deepika parted ways.'
'But Ranbir Kapoor was graceful enough that..
..when promotions were going on for the film "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani"
he supported Deepika wholeheartedly.'
'And answered every question bravely.'
I think it's an amazingly weird question.
We didn’t come here for promotion.
'I don't think any actor in the film fraternity..
..they do things for the promotion and marketing of a film.'
'Even we have a life. We have a personal life.'
'Films are our work. We do a lot of things for our films.'
'But that is it. When we go home we have our own personal life.'
'We have our parents, we have a family. We have friends.'
'So I think you should respect that.'
'You know when you start...when you ask a question like this..
..and if Deepika replies then that will become an article for you.'
'So I think it is best that you would also have a little bit of dignity..
at a press conference like this,at a platform like this..
..and not bring up questions like these.'
'There was also a time..
..when Salman Khan didn't like Ranbir Kapoor because..
..there was a lot of talk about Ranbir and Katrina Kaif's romance.'
'And these pictures even proved it to be true.'
'But Ranbir Kapoor is a brave superstar.'
'When news was circling about Katrina Kaif's bikini..
..and Ranbir Kapoor's beach photographs.
Ranbir faced all this upfront.'
What I want to say is that what we call PR.
..you know actors do some controversy before the film release..
which makes it hot news, there is no such thing.
If someone wants to meet me he messages me directly.
And I think he must be a fool..
..if he wants to give his personal pictures to promote his film.
I was just saying that I want to protect my personal life..
..and all of you are saying just the opposite.
I would never do something like that. I wonder if other people do so.
I think the photographers were shameless..
..to click these pictures and print them.
And see how much they benefited. They sold plenty of magazines.
'Ranbir Kapoor showed so much shamelessness..
..that his dream got fulfilled..
..of working in the same film with his parents.'
Rishi Kapoor, Neetu Kapoor and Ranbir..
..were seen together in the film "Besharam".
"Become shameless."
'Ranbir has an elder sister Riddhima Sahni who is married.'
'And his cousins.
Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor are superstars themselves.'
'Ranbir wasn't to be seen in Kareena's wedding.'
'But he has openly congratulated Kareena many a times in public.'
'And a time also came when the films "Heroine" and "Barfi..
..were going to be released almost together.'
'And at that time these kids from the Kapoor..
..clan sent good wishes to each other aplenty.'
Kapoors will always rule so I hope that Ranbir's picture does well..
..and I hope he feels that my film should also work.
Everyone's film should do well but ours should do better.
On the basis of his natural acting, performance and dancing skills.
Ranbir Kapoor made his mark in Bollywood and all the superstars said..
..that if there is a rockstar then that's Ranbir Kapoor.
Indeed RK has made the RK family proud.
