Who inherits the position vacated by Mr Kapoor? Ranbir's actor father Rishi Kapoor anointed two current actors - or rather, he anointed one actor and then remembered there was another contender.
His chosen two are Salman Khan and, of course, Hrithik Roshan:
Handsome. After Shashi Kapoor, think Salman Khan is the only one. What blessed looks!

Did we say two actors? Make that three. Rishi Kapoor, who admits to a bias in this case, also thinks his son Ranbir is every kind of awesome:
But mere liye mera beta mere aankh ka taara. Deadly combination of what is needed in films. Jai Mata Di!

In this, he received endorsement from one fan:
@chintskap in today's generation of young actors, ranbir kapoor is the most handsome. Before that it was hrithik 4 sure.

And at least two others told him that he was handsome too ('if Rishi wasn't handsome, how could Ranbir be?').
Shashi Kapoor received the Dadasaheb Phalke Award in a ceremony at Mumbai's Prithvi Theatre - that he set up with late wife Jennifer - on Sunday. Most of the Kapoors were present, as were his co-stars of several films - Amitabh Bachchan, Rekha, Waheeda Rehman, Asha Parekh, Hema Malini, Shabana Azmi and many others.
