He told that when he met Alia for the first time, Alia’s question was that who is this Kishore Kumar. They were surprised to hear this. When Ranbir told this, the people we met at the function were also quite surprised. Because Kishore Kumar was already quite popular among the youth. But Ranbir said that when the new generation comes, people forget the old work or it is not able to reach them.

Same thing happened in Alia’s case also and she did not know how big a legend Kishore Kumar was. Therefore, Ranbir Kapoor decided to organize a film festival in his grandfather’s name so that his work reaches the coming generations and people remember him. Talking about Kishore Kumar, he was the greatest singer of his time. He also acted in many films and due to his multitalented personality, he remained very popular among the youth.
