THIS veteran actor desires to work with Ranbir-Alia's daughter Raha after working with 4 generations of the Kapoor clan
The Kapoor Clan is one of the most respected families in the Indian Film Industry. For generations, the Kapoors have devoted themselves to filmmaking and their significant contributions have played a vital role in making the cine industry recognised across the world. With a legacy spanning over 90 years, their key contributions have shaped Bollywood for over a century. There are a few actors who have worked with either two or three generations of the Kapoors. However, there is one actor who has worked with four generations of the Kapoor clan and now wants to work with Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt's daughter Raha Kapoor.
The journey that started with Prithviraj Kapoor continued with Raj Kapoor, Shammi Kapoor, and Shashi Kapoor to Randhir Kapoor and Rishi Kapoor. Later, the legacy was passed on to the next generation, i.e., Karisma Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, and now Ranbir Kapoor. While Kareena and Ranbir are actively working in the industry, they have already welcomed their next generation with Raha being the youngest of all.
The dignified veteran actor is none other than Prem Chopra.
"Prem naam hai mera, Prem Chopra...(My name is Prem, Prem Chopra)," This iconic line from 'Bobby', catapulted the dapper actor to instant stardom. Prem Chopra is one of the most iconic villains witnessed by Bollywood. His unique style of acting and handling the villain role in a treacherous but superficially sweet way earned him a distinguished identity.
The legendary villain of Bollywood, recently, opened up about working with four generations of the Kapoor clan.
Recently, Prem Chopra graced the chat show, 'The Invincibles Season 2', hosted by Arbaaz Khan. While talking to Khan, Chopra said, "Prithviraj Kapoor ke saath pehle kam kiya. He was a great actor, great personality."
"Uske baad Raj Kapoor ke saath kam kiya, uske baad Shammi Kapoor ke saath kam kiya, uske baad Shashi Kapoor. Fir Chimpu Kapoor, Chintu Kapoor, Dabboo Kapoor. Unki biwiyan bhi, Neetu Singh aur Babita. Aab unke baache ke saath. Ab Kareena Kapoor aur Ranbir Kapoor ke saath bhi kam kar liya," the legendary actor added.
When said by Khan that he now just needs to work with Kareena and Ranbir's children, the legendary actor jokingly said, "Maine woh unse (Ranbir) kaha."
Well, Prem Chopra is probably the only living legend of Bollywood who has worked with the four generations of the Kapoor clan, from Prithviraj to Ranbir. And if Raha makes her debut as a child artist and the veteran actor shares screen space with her, it would be phenomenal. Isn't it?
Prem Chopra as a ruthless villain, has immortalised several characters with his powerful performances. He was last seen in Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal, starring Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol and Triptii Dimri in pivotal roles. The veteran actor portrayed the role of Ranvijay's granduncle Dalbir Dodamal Singh.
