Actor Ranbir Kapoor recently recalled the only time his later father Rishi Kapoor raised his hand on him. The actor appeared on the first episode of `The Great Indian Kapil Show` on Netflix along with his sister Riddhima Kapoor Sahni and mother Neetu Kapoor. On the show, he recalled the reason behind his father hitting him on a Diwali day.
On the show, while talking about his later father, Ranbir said that if Rishi Kapoor screamed at someone it only meant that he loved that person. Neetu and Riddhima also nodded in agreement. Ranbir further said that his father only hit him once in his entire life. Recalling the incident, he said, "Mujhe ek hi baar bohot zor ki pari thi! Diwali puja at RK Studios. Papa bohot religious the. I think I was eight or nine years old. Toh main chappal pehenke andar chala gaya tha mandir mein. Toh mujhe dapli pari thi (He hit me only once, very hard! He was a religious man, and I had entered the temple premises without opening my shoes. So he had hit me on the head)!"
