My grandfather had passed away. My father (Randhir) wasn’t working much at the time. Chintu uncle (Rishi Kapoor) was a big star, but none of the other men had much work. My father told Lolo she could act if she wanted to, but he wasn’t going to make any calls for her. She had to start in the south, with Harish in a D. Ramanaidu film.”
