BT Exclusive: Ranbir Kapoor dances with his parents for the first time
Priya Gupta (BOMBAY TIMES; September 4, 2013)
All of us Bollywood film lovers will remember how we clapped and whistled when the 80s golden couple Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh sang Ek Main Aur Ek Tu in Khel Khel Main. Almost three decades later, one gets goosebumps watching this still very-graceful couple sharing screen space with their superstar son Ranbir Kapoor in Abhinav Kashyap's Besharam. At a specially erected set in Filmcity, Mumbai, Ranbir, dressed in white, looking young and handsome, was shaking a leg with his parents. Speaking exclusively to us, Gen-Now's most popular superstar said, "I am feeling as if my parents are my children. I'm extremely protective about both of them while on the set. If mom is ok, then papa's beat is also ok. My mother has always been the most beautiful woman for me. In Besharam, she will be the surprise package. she plays a middle-class hawaldar (cop) which could have turned vampish, but she has handled it so correctly and is absolutely endearing."

Mirror got a sneak peek, quite literally, at Besharam's much talked about number which unites Ranbir Kapoor with parents Rishi and Neetu on the dance floor. We gatecrashed the sets at Film City to bring you these pictures of the trio filming Hand Uthake Nachche which looks like a colourful tribute to Rishi Kapoor. The song starts with a montage of Kapoor Sr's famous celluloid moments, with his cherubic debut in Bobby featuring prominently. That comes as no surprise as Rishi is enjoying a rather successful second innings in Bollywood. While the Kapoor clan shot together, the movie's leading lady Pallavi Sharda continued shooting her portions after their departure. RK flew in from Sri Lanka to film this song which has been sung by Daler Mehndi and Mika.
