Here’s what Kareena Kapoor Khan has to say about her family selling RK Studios

Rishi Kapoor recently confirmed the news that the landmark RK Studios in Chembur is up for sale. “Chhati pe patthar rakkhar, soch samajh kar decision liya hai,” he said in an interview with Mumbai Mirror.

Now, Kareena Kapoor Khan has also spoken about the Kapoors selling RK Studios. The actress reminisced about her childhood days spent in the studio.

Kareena, who was the showshopper for designer Monisha Jaising at the Lakme Fashion Week Winter/Festive 2018, said, “I don’t know how far what is actually happening. In fact, I have been quite under the weather and I haven’t even met my father in the last four or five days. But of course, we have all grown up walking around in those corridors.”

She further added, “I think it’s probably something that the family has decided, so it’s upto my fathers, his brothers and up to them. If that’s what they have decided, so be it.”

Rishi Kapoor, in his interview with Mumbai Mirror, had also said, “For a while, we did juggle with the idea of renovating the place with state-of-the-art technology. However, in reality, it isn’t always possible for a phoenix to rise from the ashes. We Kapoors are very emotional lot but then…”

He added, “The investment in rebuilding the studio would just not have yielded sufficient revenue to keep it going. Believe me, we had to take the larger picture into account and take a level-headed decision. Even before the fire, for years R. K. Studio had become a huge white elephant, toting up losses. The few bookings we would get from films, TV serials and ad shoots would expect free parking space, air-conditioning and discounts.”

Rishi gave a reason for their decision saying, “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. There would be family differences and only lawyers would end up charging heavy sums of fee. Do you think my father would have liked to see his labour of love becoming the subject of courtroom proceedings?”
