Rishi Kapoor is considered a leading name in Indian cinema someone who would effortlessly pull-off any role on the big-screen. Besides being a phenomenal actor he was known for his blunt nature and was often seen losing his temper for one or the other reasons. Well it wasnt just his wife and children who commented on his fiery side his co-stars also had their own stories to tell.
Recently actor Nana Patkar shared his memorable experience of working with him during the 1995 film Hum Dono. The actor revealed that Rishi Kapoor had a short temper and would often lose his cool on the sets. One of the reasons was when director used to ask for multiple takes which used to irritate the late actor a lot.
When Rishi Kapoor Lost His Temper on Nana Patekar
Speaking to Lallantop Nana Patekar recalled an incident where Rishi Kapoor became angry when asked to repeat a shot. The actor felt that the first take wasnt good and requested Rishi to try again. I once asked him to give it another shot as the first one was terrible. He said Who is the director here? Shafi or you? Hatao yaar isko.
Rishi Kapoor clearly irritated agreed to do the second shot but according to Nana it was still not what he wanted. Nana in his blunt style told him Chintu ye bakwaas hai (Chintu this is nonsense). At that point Rishi lost his calm and began abusing Nana Itni gandi gaaliyan! Recalling the moment he began laughing on how angry Rishi had become.
However after the fifth take Rishi Kapoor calmed down and said Now I will hit you! But surprisingly the fifth take came out to be the best one and made it to the final cut of the film. That was the best take! Nana said expressing how sometimes heated moments can lead to success in filmmaking.
