What's the Kapoor khandaan doing with Prime Minister Narendra D Modi?

Kareena Kapoor explains with a long post: 'We are deeply humbled and honoured to have been invited by the Honourable Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, to commemorate the life and legacy of our grandfather, the legendary Raj Kapoor.

'Thank you Shree Modiji for such a special afternoon. Your warmth, attention and support in celebrating this milestone meant the world to us.'

'As we celebrate 100 glorious years of Dadaji's artistry, vision and contribution to Indian cinema, we honour the timeless impact of his legacy, which continues to inspire us and generations to come.'

Raj Kapoor's birth centenary is on December 14, and the Kapoor family hopes that Modi will be a part of the big celebrations planned.

It's quite a coincidence that in one of Saif's latest films, he played Raavan (Adipurush) while Ranbir plays Ram in his next.
