On the one hand there was the Shyam Benegal and Govind Nihalani universe. Sunday afternoons were about \u201cregional cinema\u201d, where one was gradually getting exposed to names like Adoor Gopalakrishnan and Aravindan. And the works of Ray, Ghatak and Mrinal Sen were like a rite of passage for any Bong kid. We were of course bored to death with some of it but unwittingly, it was all seeping into our bones.<\/p>\n<p>On the other extreme end were Sunday evenings and VHS sessions. While Amitabh Bachchan was like this benevolent God who kept on giving, he was less \u2018accessible\u2019, only to be found on video cassettes. For some reason, the national broadcaster rarely showed his films. The weekly shows on Sunday evenings (and later Saturdays and Tuesday afternoons) were reserved for Dev Anand, Rajesh Khanna, Dharmendra, Joy Mukherjee, Biswajeet and\u2026 [highlight background=&#8221;#f79126&#8243; color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221;]Rishi Kapoor[\/highlight]. While Bachchan had completely engulfed us, Rishi was the only other actor we truly enjoyed watching on screen. That smile could melt mountains. Bachchan with his swag and super-heroic invulnerability was a natural pull for kids our age, but Rishi managed to keep us engaged without any of these shenanigans. Because he was, contrary to popular (including his own) perception, a great actor even back then.<\/p>\n<h2>Adaakari<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3418 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn02-156x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn02-156x300.jpg 156w, https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn02.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/>The mainstream Hindi film industry (\u201cBollywood\u201d as a term wasn\u2019t in circulation yet) was experiencing its worst phase back in the 1980s. So much so that many were declaring it dead. The middle class had all but given up on this form of entertainment, barring reruns on TV and video rentals. Nobody went to theatres anymore. Precious few films were able to recover their investment, even fewer reported hits at the box office. In the middle of this dry spell, Rishi Kapoor had a blockbuster in Nagina (1986).<\/p>\n<p>It was around this time that Rishi appeared in an interview for a Canadian television channel, which remains his only televised interview from that time.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201dJo cheez badi routine ho, usey aap ek novel tareeke se karke dikhaaye, uss cheez ko main bahut maanta hoon kyonki main khud ek spontaneous kism ka actor hoon\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>He was, of course, referring to his approach to acting. Nobody at the time bothered too much about \u201cthe craft\u201d. Nobody spoke about it, nobody wanted to hear about it. But here Rishi Kapoor, a \u201ccommercial cinema\u201d actor, was talking about his \u201ccraft\u201d. And this brings to light another aspect that was unique about that era.<\/p>\n<p>Like in the rest of the world, the cinema of India was undergoing a shift in the 70s. A commitment to realism and what was seen as an emphasis on substance rather than form, gave rise to the Parallel Cinema movement. While its foundations were laid in the 50s, the movement gained wide acceptance in the 70s and 80s with the likes of Shyam Benegal, Govind Nihalani, Saeed Mirza, Kumar Shahani and Mani Kaul doing their thing. This created a schism between the \u201ccommercial\u201d cinema of the day and the so-called \u201cart films\u201d. These categories were neatly divided and the filmmakers and patrons of either kind of cinema would scoff at the other. But a curious fallout of this was that the so-called commercial cinema actors\u2014like Rishi Kapoor\u2014were seen with derision. Since they sang and danced and fought, they were perceived as bad actors. And that is what Kapoor was referencing in his interview. Nothing could be farther from the truth.<\/p>\n<p>Mainstream Hindi cinema has had a lingua franca of its own that it has evolved over the years. And while it cannot be blamed for making the audience \u201cthink\u201d, it has left indelible impressions on the Indian psyche. It exists in its own Universe, with its own Reality. Loud, gesticulative acting is a hallmark of this kind of cinema. But there are some actors who have\u2014while staying true to this universe\u2014figured out their own \u201cmethod\u201d of infusing their performances with a certain sense of naturalism. Sanjeev Kumar, Ashok Kumar, Rekha and Rishi Kapoor are prime examples. Rishi for one has never dabbled in serious cinema\u2014with the exception of the very unsure Ek Chadar Maili Si &#8211; and nor did he actively partake in the Kapoor family tradition of theatre.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3412 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn03-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn03-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn03.jpg 670w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>But pick up the silliest of titles from his filmography, and Rishi\u2019s acting in it is characterised by a sincerity that is present in some of his better known work as well. Consider Tawaif (1985), a B.R. Chopra film where Rishi plays Dawood, a wannabe writer who ends up having to live-in with a courtesan when she lands on his doorstep one night. Playing the template Muslim youngster commonly seen in \u201cMuslim Socials\u201d those days, not only is his Urdu diction flawless, he plays the part with a felicity mostly seen in actors trained on the stage: using space efficiently, interacting with props, economy of movement, impeccable timing. And the same elements can be seen in Ravi Tandon\u2019s Rahi Badal Gaye (1985), where he plays dual roles, one of them visibly older. Rishi uses merely his body language to convey one person to have seen more years and the other being more effervescent and youthful. And then there was Duniya (1984), where he was pitted against Dilip Kumar. All these were uni-dimensional characters cut-out from cardboards. He almost never had meticulously written roles. But Rishi played them with a vitality not even expected of him in these parts. If you see him in these roles, it is inconceivable that he was doing multiple shifts a day, hopping from set to set.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s why back in 1987 when his colleagues never spoke of such things, Rishi said in that interview: <em>\u201dMain koi designed, created ya koi engineered acting nahi karta hoon. Main inn cheezon ko maanta nahin hoon. Jaise cheezen aati hain woh kar leta hoon, jo nahin aati woh nahi kar paata..\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Doosra Janam<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"> Rishi Kapoor<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Around the year 2000, a new generation of filmmakers were bringing about a change in the way mainstream cinema was made. The parallel cinema movement had all but died, leaving offsprings in the shape of prodigious directors like Anurag Kashyap, Imtiaz Ali and Vishal Bharadwaj. Ashutosh Gowariker and Farhan Akhtar were demonstrating that socially conscious and realistic cinema can be made without alienating those seeking entertainment in the movies. The two cinemas were coming closer and closer until inevitably, they were fused together.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3410\" src=\"https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn01-1024x248.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"121\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn01-1024x248.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn01-300x73.jpg 300w, https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn01-768x186.jpg 768w, https:\/\/filmcriticscircle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/05\/Rishi-Kapoor-001-tn01.jpg 1032w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>In this new world, \u201ccommercial actors\u201d like Rishi Kapoor who had never set foot inside FTII or worked with Gulzar or Hrishikesh Mukherjee, should have found themselves at sea. But something unexpected happened. It was like he had suddenly been set free. All those years of animated gestures and loud dialogue deliveries and the flamboyance seemed to have been a solid grounding for the eccentric parts he was expected to play now, especially Romi Rolly in Luck By Chance (2009), Santosh Duggal in Do Dooni Chaar (2010), Rauf Lala in Agneepath, and the grandfather in Kapoor &amp; Sons (2016). Notably, the new breed of directors employing him now had all grown up on the same commercial masala films Rishi Kapoor was a part of. They were all film buffs\u2014and smart ones at that, so they knew how to play to his strengths.<\/p>\n<p>But this wasn\u2019t a 2.0. It was the same set of skills, he was just employing them more consciously. He was more liberated. He took flight. Like he wrote in his autobiography \u2018Khullam Khulla\u2019, acting to him was \u2018putting in effort to show effortlessness\u2019. Unlike most movie critics and reviewers, Rishi Kapoor\u2019s fans were not shocked or even surprised at what he was able to do now. We always knew. We were just having a ball seeing him have a ball.<\/p>\n<p>This year he was about to reinterpret Robert De Niro\u2019s role from The Intern, and team up with Juhi Chawla after 20 years for a film called Sharmaji Namkeen.<\/p>\n<p>And the man had hardly even reached his prime. For all we know, Rishi Kapoor was just getting started.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n[divider text=&#8221;Go to TOP&#8221; size=&#8221;1&#8243; margin=&#8221;0&#8243;]\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0438501\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">IMDB<\/a> link of Rishi Kapoor<\/p>\n[youtube_advanced url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Q7ds8oM_u70&#8243; width&#8221; width=&#8221;300&#8243; height=&#8221;200&#8243; responsive=&#8221;no&#8221; controls=&#8221;alt&#8221; autoplay=&#8221;no&#8221;]\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rishi Kapoor \u2014 Tujh mein kya hai deewane A Bengali film buff growing up in 1980s small town India was overwhelmed with a plethora of influences.
