Rishi Kapoor Rejected Raj Kapoor's Film Over Night Shoots

Rishi Kapoor, a famous actor, once refused to act in a movie made by his father, Raj Kapoor.

The reason was that the movie required shooting at night.

Rishi didn't like night shoots.

This story was shared by another filmmaker, Rakesh Omprakash Mehra, who worked with Rishi on a different movie called Delhi 6.

Rishi and his father had a complicated relationship, but they still worked together on many successful movies.

Rishi used to call his father 'sahab,' which shows that their relationship was more formal than close.

Despite this, Rishi was very talented and acted in many famous movies.
