His foreword for Rishi Kapoor's autobiography has all that and more...
After Karan Johar, Rishi Kapoor too has come up with his own autobiography. Titled, Khullam Khulla, the book penned by Rishi himself has an entire episode dedicated to his relationship with son Ranbir.
Everyone knows it that Rishi and Ranbir aren't the usual father-son duo who will give a pat on each other's back or are extremely friendly with each other. Rishi and Ranbir maintain a line which they don't cross in their relationship.
And now, Ranbir Kapoor has written a foreword for the book, sharing details about his relationship with his dad Rishi and explaining why he won't be a father like his dad is to him.
Here's what he wrote:
"I am closer to my mother. I feel that Dad modelled his relationship with me on the one he shared with his own father. And it is true that I have never crossed a certain line with him. But there is no sense of loss or vacuum here. I do wish sometimes that I could be friendlier with him or even spend more time with him. Sometimes I wish I could just pick up the phone and ask him, ‘Dad, how are you doing?’ But we do not have that. We do not have a phone relationship. When I get married and have children, I would want to change that dynamic with them. I don’t want my relationship with my children to be as formal as the one I have with my father. I want to be friendlier, be more connected, spend more time with them than he did with me. I love my father dearly and have immense respect for him. I’m inspired by him and never want to let him down. I know he has only my best interests at heart. He also takes care of the financial side of my work. So we are more connected now. His confidence in me and my work makes me take pride in it. I persevere that much harder because of this. His belief and his encouragement are important to me. I do not have a take on his Twitter personality. All I can say is, so long as he is being honest and having fun, it’s his prerogative. Social media is something very personal. Of course, he gets himself into a spot sometimes with his frank speak, but I know he has no agenda and no hidden motive. My father is a straight arrow."
