Ranbir Kapoor clearly remembers the only time his father Rishi Kapoor hit him. The actor, who appeared on the first episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show with mother Neetu Kapoor and sister Riddhima Kapoor Sahani, recalled how Rishi Kapoor hit him hard when he entered a temple with shoes on.

What Ranbir said

While talking about Rishi Kapoor on the show, Ranbir said that if his father screamed at someone that meant that he loved that person. He then 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)!"

Ranbir then joked that it was his mother Neetu Kapoor who used to beat him as a child, and in one occasion, even with a hanger! When Kapil asked Neetu if Ranbir has changed after marriage, she said that he has become a better person as he values relationships a lot more. Riddhima added that after the arrival of his daughter Raha, he has become a loving and caring father.
