Raj Kapoor, celebrated as Indian cinema’s greatest showman and often compared to Charlie Chaplin, passed away in 1988. Now, his grandson Ranbir Kapoor is preparing a heartfelt tribute. A video of Ranbir, striking a resemblance to his grandfather’s iconic look, is currently making waves across social media platforms.
The Iconic Look Recreated
Ranbir was spotted stepping out of his vanity van wearing a sleek black blazer over a matching black shirt and ankle-length trousers. He accessorized with a black hat and carried a cloth bundle tied to a stick, perfectly recreating the iconic look of his grandfather Raj Kapoor from the famous 1955 film 'Shree 420', especially reminiscent of the song "Mera Joota Hai Japani." The resemblance between grandfather and grandson was unmistakable in the clip.
Speculation and Silence
The actor kept quiet about the reason behind his look, simply smiling warmly and waving at the cameras. Yet, fans are buzzing with speculation, wondering if he’s honoring his grandfather or gearing up for a remake of the classic song. The official word is still awaited, leaving everyone eager for news.
