Ranbir shared that sometimes as an artist, the passing away of his father has affected him. The Saawariya actor further mentioned that when his father, Rishi Kapoor had cancer, he was working on the films, Brahmastra and Shamshera. Revealing how the films remind him of his father, Ranbir stated:
"It does affect you as an artist, but I guess one can't tell it right away. Maybe after a couple of years… When my father was suffering from cancer and was going through his treatment, I was working on Brahmastra and Shamshera at that time.When I see Brahmastra now, there are amazing memories, but there are certain scenes I see and I get reminded of moments… like 'Oh! At this time, he was having chemotherapy or he was on a ventilator…' But how it helps you, I won't really realise it for a couple of years."
