I am not surprised this one did not receive many comments. It was really good interview with no controversy. It is sad state of today's fandom on how we love bad stuff.

I could see why Amitabh ruled Bollywood for so long. Ranbir got crash course on how Bollywood legends become Legends. If I was an actor I would be seriously jealous of him. One of the best 45 minutes of my life.

There were so may takeaways. I will see it again after few days.


A> They did not hide their relation. Ranbir talked about Shweta - how they both loved same Amitabh movie. There was no pause of significance. AB wishes Ranbir every year.
B> Amitabh made Ranbir feel comfortable, watched Ranbir and then suddenly opened up. It was in that moment he realized he was with someone who will respect his answers.
C> Amitabh taught Ranbir on how to handle failures, press and his actual take on social media.
D> He also taught him why it is important to forget perception and stick to reality. Ego has no place when you have no job and there is no shame in asking for work.
E> Ranbir is smart and inquisitive. He did not allow Amitabh to run away from anything. But he gave him his space when answering.
F> While they praised each other, they did not go overboard.
G> Ranbir is going to become director some day in future. He is looking at people with the same eyes as how his grand father looked at his co-stars.
H> Some good PR worthy things - Ranbir actually taught young girl from movie Black.
I> Amitabh has stage fear and hates dancing(Ranbir actually had that lovely mischievous smile on hearing this).
J> Ranbir's favorite Amitabh movie is Amar Akbar Anthony. [:D/] Ranbir actually loves masala movie.
L> Ranbir's loneliness is part of him.
M> Both have legends in their family and so many memories to share. It was funny how Ranbir started with having fan moment because he was sharing stage with AB and AB in turn talked about his fan moment with RK senior.
N> Amitabh's share on the single mistake he made in the scene in Black. It was lesson in acting all by itself. And final wink when he said he wanted to work with RK to learn acting.

Ranbir was nervous but he is seriously curious and he is still when he listens.

Love this post! 👍🏼
@bold: Ranbir has an extremely borderline stalker level curiosity. Anushka always see he opens drawers,bags etc to know what is inside. Everyone says he asks too many questions to the point of annoyance 😆 But, it's necessary for him. he comes from this shielded strata of society where he hasn't met people from all walks of life. This helps him get that connect

I hope he does become a director after he's at the top of the chain. Like, just drops everything and directs a movie of his choice. He has dabbled in the creative side of a movie with Jagga Jasoos cuz he's the producer.

Also, when AB praised him, he started blushing and looked down 😆

I don't get why he doesn't about all this stuff in his own interviews!

I keep saying this but Ranbir doesn't embody that star trait. He's just busy doing his thing. It reminds me of the Golden era of BW

Raj - Change the title to something exciting 😆 - Shocking details of what RK did on sets of Black

This is a must watch interview for any BW lover.

My take away from this session
1) Ranbir is introvert, when he says that he needs trappings of a character to perform coz being himself is difficult , he isn't exaggerating. His monologue at the beginning of interview was shaky.

2) Ranbir is respectful. There is deep sense of old world respect mannerisms in him. See him touching feet of seniors, or how he is not able to look into Sr B's eyes , its visible in the interview. Its a rare quality now a days !!
I wish this aspect of his personality is publicized more than the trashy image he is trying to portray

3) We have it from THE BIG B that RK's eyes are not dead !! Case closed.

4) Mr B is so observant😲. RK translates his acting without many hand, eye and body movements. His acting is subtle !!
Which old man advrt is he talking about? DOCOMO ones?

5) Mr B's take on social media is real. His advice to RK - you must do what you feel like doing - about being on SM . Simple and short advice

6) Mr B's take on failure - sit back and think what is your core strength, take small steps. Is he advising Abhishek?
He is right when he said that no matter how RK's movies are doing, audience knows that he is a good actor .

7) RK trained Ayesha Kapur👏 . She was better than Rani IMHO

8) New york acting school ( that Lee Strasberg) is only 9 months 😲 . Why there's so much hype around it?

9) Mr B is scared of acting in theater. He would excel it, he is being so humble. He learns his 4 page monologue in 1 hour😲 . I know with age, your rote memory depreciates. Big B must be at least 60 when he worked on Black. This is commendable. I forget my shopping lists even now

10) RK's favorite movies are AAA and Namak Halal. I thought he would choose Kabhi Kabhi , Silsila or Black as his favorites.

11) When were RK and BigB in same hotel in London? Was it after DP breakup? RK is really worried about media. Poor thing wanted to read a book in peace during that time !! He must feel really hounded by the media.

12) How many actors has Big B asked for an acting lesson? RK is indeed special !!

This was such a personal chat, with no melodramatics and no OTT praise . This is how it is done. No dancing on Jumma Chumma to grab eyeballs.

This is real RK, not the one on KWK !! Damn it !!

We need a post to put RK's interview with Anupam, TBIT and this one. They are gems.

I loved the video and I loved your discussions...now that is something really good to read... I laughed at RK's trembling voice in the beginning...he is truly a fanboy !!...he was very emotional and it shows!...he himself is from the biggest filmy family yet so humble ...it's clear how he admires and respects AB...he just wants to learn!

I think Neetu is somewhat responsible for how RK is now...i mean who shares every details of their marital problems with a 16 year old boy...and he saw his parents fight openly with each other...it made him confused and scared I believe...
