At the Brahmastra Fan Event on Wednesday, Ranbir Kapoor said he missed his father Rishi Kapoor on the special occasion. Ranbir paid a tribute to Rishi by singing his song Om Shanti Om. He then added that Rishi would fight with Ranbir and film's director Ayan Mukerji over the film, asking them numerous questions.
Ranbir remembered Rishi saying, “I miss my father terribly today. I remember during the making of this film, during these last how many ever years, he kept fighting with Ayan and me and kept questioning us, 'What are you doing?' 'Who takes so long to make a film?' 'Who spends so much money? Ranbir you're not making one penny on this film. VFX film kaun dekhega, India mein koi VFX film nahi dekhta (Who watches VFX in India? No one will watch a film made with VFX).".
“But I believe he's here somewhere. I hope he's proud, I hope he's smiling. And just to pay a small tribute to him, if you guys know it, please join me,” he added, before revisiting iconic lines from Rishi's film Karz. “Kya tumne kabhi kisi se pyaar kiya, kabhi kisi ko dil diya, maine bhi diya,” Ranbir said, blowing a kiss at the sky.
Rishi passed away on April 30, 2020 after battling with leukaemia for two years. The legendary actor breathed his last at the Sir HN Reliance Foundation Hospital in Mumbai.
