After Putting RK Studios On Sale, Randhir Kapoor Says It¡¯s More An Emotional Loss Than Monetary

The news of iconic RK Studios built by Raj Kapoor being put on sale has left not only the fans but also the Kapoor family emotional. The Kapoor clan, which took a unanimous decision to sell off 2 acres of property after it was burnt in an abrupt fire last year, announced it with a heavy heart. It feels like an end of an era, doesn¡¯t it?

Rishi Kapoor in an interview with Mumbai Mirror had earlier confirmed the news. He said that it wasn¡¯t possible for a ¡°phoenix to rise from the ashes¡±. Also, he said the family feared the fights over property in future. ¡°We brothers are strongly bonded. But who knows about our children and grand-children? What if differences crop up in the next generation? The studio would only end up in litigation as so many industrial and textile estates have.¡±

Now, Randhir Kapoor has said that it is more of an emotional loss than a monetary one. ¡°It¡¯s even more an emotional loss than monetary loss. We have lost the entire memorabilia of Raj Kapoor. Whatever Raj Kapoor had built has been burnt down,¡± he was quoted as saying by The Quint.

He also added that not many actors visited there because of traffic. ¡°With the state of the roads and traffic today, no actor comes to Chembur to shoot in this studio. They would rather go to Film City. So, with a very heavy heart, we have decided to let it go. My whole family is very sad, but there¡¯s no other way,¡± he said.
