New Delhi:
Ranbir Kapoor, who is gearing up for his much-anticipated biopic drama Sanju, on Sunday, celebrated fatherhood and dedicated a day of honour to his father and yesteryear actor Rishi Kapoor.
The 35-year-old actor on Sunday overtook Fox Star Hindi's official Twitter handle for a Question and Answer session with his fans ahead of the release of Sanju.
On the occasion of Father's Day, he shared an exclusive snippet from Sanju, in which he and Paresh Rawal, who plays veteran actor Sunil Dutt in the film, can be seen recreating the memorable 'Jaadu Ki Jhappi' moment from Munna Bhai MBBS.

Asked if he quarrelled with his real-life father, Rishi Kapoor, Ranbir said he is scared of him and joked he does not even know his eye colour. "I don't even know what his eye colour is because I've never looked into his eye. However, Happy Father's Day papa. I love you! (sic)" he wrote.
Happy Father’s Day papa! Love you the most. Thank you for being The Super Papa! #JaaduKiJhappi @chintskap pic.twitter.com/vGShrVUKlh

Ranbir shared some quality time with his father when they recently watched Argentina play Iceland at 2018 FIFA World Cup "I am a football fan and papa's a cricket fan! But we watched the Argentina-Iceland game together. It was fun educating him about the sport!" he said.
Making the Father's day a bit more special, he also shared his favourite father-son moments from some of his recent films like Jagga Jasoos, Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani, Wake Up Sid and more.

Ranbir essays the role of Sanjay Dutt in Rajkumar Hirani's upcoming venture Sanju and said it is both "terrifying and exciting" to star in someone's biopic.
Ranbir is not active on social media. So, when one of the admirers asked him how it felt to be on Twitter, he said it is "strange" but he is happy to connect with fans on Father's Day.
Also starring Dia Mirza, Vicky Kaushal, Sonam K Ahuja, Anushka Sharma, among others, Sanju is slated to hit the theatres on June 29, 2018.
