Quotes from Randhir Kapoor

My father was my best friend. He was conservative and traditional, but at the same time, he wasn't strict.

I have never been a strict father.

My father believed in moving on with time; he always said that the show must go on, come what may. That is exactly what we did when it came to RK Studios.

Yes, Super Nani' excited me, as it is my type of film. It is a proper family entertainer.

I was equally close to Rishi and Rajiv.

In the evenings, I am like any other normal man who spends some time with his friends.

Every man cannot be Raj Kapoor, like how every singer cannot be Lata Mangeshkar or Mohd Rafi.

I don't work to earn my livelihood anymore.
