Rajiv Kapoor (born 25 August 1962) is an Indian film actor, producer, director and a member of the famous Kapoor Family.
Early life
He is the youngest son of famous actor/director Raj Kapoor.
Career
He had a short stint in the Hindi film industry, acting in only 13 films. His first film was Ek jaan hain hum (1983), with Divya Rana, Shammi Kapoor, Pran, and Gulshan Grover. His next film was Ram Teri Ganga Maili (1985), directed by his father Raj Kapoor. This was Raj Kapoor's last film. He was not as successful as his other brothers Randhir and Rishi, but he is noted for his role in Ram Teri Ganga Maili (1985) starring opposite Mandakini which was one of the biggest hits of the year. He acted in a string of other unsuccessful films and made his last film appearance in Zimmedaar which released in 1990. He then turned to producing and directing. He produced Henna (1991) which was directed by his brother Randhir and then made his directorial debut with PremGranth (1996) which starred his brother Rishi and Madhuri Dixit. After that film became a "disaster" at the box office,[1] he didn't direct again.
In 1999 he produced Aa Ab Laut Chalen which was directed by his brother Rishi. Since then he has not been active in film producing or directing. In 2001, he married an architect Aarti Sabharal, but the marriage ended in divorce two years later.
Rajiv is currently studying film studies at Nipissing University in North Bay, Ontario.[citation needed]
