Rishi & Ranbir’s Relationship ..? !
Described their bond as a typical father-son dynamic with frequent disagreements.
“They used to fight a lot,” Ghai said, pointing out generational and personality differences.
Rishi disapproved of Ranbir’s inclination towards Western and offbeat cinema.
He believed Ranbir should embrace traditional hindi cinema for success.
After returning from New York, Ranbir often complied quietly but confided in his mother, Neetu Kapoor.
Ranbir’s Growth as an Actor
Ghai praised Ranbir’s evolution into both a top actor and star.
Acknowledged Ranbir’s willingness to experiment, even when some choices didn’t work.
“He has now proven himself to be a number one star and also a number one actor,” Ghai noted.
Expressed regret that Rishi isn’t around to witness Ranbir’s success.
Ghai said he used to advise Rishi: “Let him do what he wants.”
Maturity and Humility
Ranbir has grown more mature, especially after marriage.
Ghai emphadata-sized his humility: “He still touches elders’ feet, has values intact.”
Compared to newcomers, Ranbir is “too simple” and shows no tantrums.
Seen as grounded despite his stardom.
On Nepotism

Stressed the importance of hard work and passion.
