Randhir Kapoor confirms plans to revive the iconic R. K. Films

K. Films, one of the most iconic film production houses in Bollywood, has not been active in business for more than two decades now. The last film which was produced under the banner was the 1999 romantic drama Aa Ab Laut Chalen, featuring Akshaye Khanna and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in lead roles. Late actor Rishi Kapoor made his directorial debut with the same.

In recent years, rumours about the Kapoors reviving R. K. Films have hit the headlines more often than not. However, they never put their plan into operation. But now, legendary actor-filmmaker Raj Kapoor’s eldest son Randhir Kapoor has said that it is indeed happening and that he will helm the project which will revive the banner. It will be a love story.


Talking to a publication, Kapoor said, “Well, it is happening. We are reviving the R. K. banner now. The film will be a love story.”

He added that he would not reveal any further details at this time but this is an exciting development, to say the least. Well, it is indeed a great piece of news for all Hindi film enthusiasts. We also wonder if Raj Kapoor’s grandchildren – Ranbir, Karisma, or Kareena –will act in the forthcoming venture.

Established by Raj Kapoor, R. K. Films came into existence in 1948, one year after India gained independence from the British rule. Though its first production Aag (1948) did not work well at the box-office, the banner went on to produce some of the most iconic films of Indian cinema in years to come, including Barsaat (1949), Awaara (1951), Shree 420 (1995), Sangam (1964), Bobby (1973), Prem Rog (1982) and Ram Teri Ganga Maili (1985), to name a few.

Nick Jonas says it's 'scary' to imagine daughter Malti in showbiz after what he and Priyanka faced

Nick Jonas is no stranger to fame. From performing on Broadway as a child to becoming one-third of the Jonas Brothers, he’s spent most of his life under the spotlight. His wife, Priyanka Chopra, entered the world of glamour as a teenager, winning Miss World at 18 before making it big in Bollywood and then Hollywood. So, it’s only natural that people are curious whether their daughter, Malti Marie, might follow in their footsteps.

During a recent appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Nick opened up about the possibility. When asked whether he’d be okay with his daughter getting into the entertainment industry at a young age, he paused before saying it’s a decision she’ll have to make herself. While three-year-old Malti already enjoys singing, Nick admitted that the idea of her stepping into such a demanding field so early is unsettling.

Akshay Kumar tells King Charles to watch Kesari 2: “You’ll know why the British should say sorry”

Akshay Kumar isn’t asking for an apology. He just wants the British to look back and really see what happened. With his upcoming film Kesari Chapter 2 hitting screens on April 18, the actor is urging both the UK government and King Charles to watch the film and confront a dark chapter in colonial history.

The film, directed by Karan Singh Tyagi and based on The Case That Shook the Empire by Raghu and Pushpa Palat, tells the story of C. Sankaran Nair, a Malayali lawyer who took legal action against General Dyer and the British government after the Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919. The massacre when British troops opened fire on a peaceful crowd remains one of the most horrific events of British rule in India.
