Rishi Kapoor passed away after a two-year-long battle with cancer in April 2020, but left behind memorable moments that live on forever. Recently, his son Ranbir Kapoor took a stroll down memory lane and shared valuable advice given to him by his late father that has stayed with him.

"Don't take success to your head and failure to your heart. What I've really understood now after so many years in the industry is do films that appeal to a larger audience," Ranbir recalled his father's advice while taking a part in a rapid-fire game conducted by the production house Yash Raj Films.

Ranbir, recently returned to the big screen four years after he delivered the blockbuster Sanju and feels his father, legendary Rishi Kapoor, would have loved to see him in and as Shamshera! Rishi Kapoor always wanted his son to attempt playing a hero who could connect to audiences across the country and Ranbir is overwhelmed that his father couldn't see this front-footed revenge spectacle.

Ranbir said, "I really wish my father was alive to see this film. He has always been blatantly honest about his criticism if he has liked something or not liked something, especially with my work. So, it's sad that he's not going to see it. But I am really excited that I got to do a film like this and I hope that somewhere up there he is looking out for me and he is proud of me."

Ranbir's latest release was Ayan Mukerji's 'Brahmastra' with wife Alia Bhatt.
