According to Ranbir, Bhansali would hit them, abuse them and he used to be kneeling for hours. However, the actor added all that has only hardened them and prepared them for the world.

PTI quoted the actor as saying, "Not saying that my generation of filmmakers are only running behind the commercial aspect... When I assisted Mr (Sanjay Leela) Bhansali (on 'Black'), he used to really treat me as an assistant director. I used to be kneeling down for hours, he used to hit us, he used to abuse us... That only hardens you and prepares you for the world."

He gave Bhansali’s example in defense when he was told by media that his uncle Randhir Kapoor has once said that the Raj Kapoor era of films is over, talking about the fact that today the filmmakers are more into the commercial aspect of films than creativity.

Ranbir was speaking at a panel discussion following the launch of the book "Raj Kapoor: The Master At Work" in the capital. Published by Bloomsbury India, the book is written by filmmaker Rahul Rawail, who served as an assistant director to Raj Kapoor on films like "Bobby".

He also shared that he is "interested" in making a biographical feature film on the life of his grandfather and Hindi cinema veteran Raj Kapoor.
