Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor recently appeared on The Great Indian Kapil Show, where they shared some anecdotes from their childhood and spoke about their grandfather, veteran actor-filmmaker Raj Kapoor. Kareena revealed that Karisma was Raj Kapoor’s most favourite grandchild. Kareena said that their grandfather loved Karisma the most because they shared the same eye colour.
Talking to Kapil, Kareena said, “Karisma was always his favourite grandchild because her eye colour matched that of Dadaji: The blue eyes. And also she was the first grandchild. So he was very excited.” Karisma added, “The interesting fact is after me, it was Taimur and then Raha; we all have same eye colour as dadaji.”
Raha Kapoor’s eye colour had become a topic of discussion after Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor revealed her face to the world on Christmas eve.
Karisma’s eye colour was very important to Raj Kapoor. He had previously shared with Kareena and Karisma’s mother Babita that he would only come to the hospital after the birth of the first grandchild if the baby had blue eyes. In the book Raj Kapoor: The One and Only Showman, written by his daughter Ritu Nanda, Babita recalled, “I remember the day Lolo was born, the entire family was with me by my side at Breach Candy Hospital, except my father-in-law. He said that he would come to the hospital only if the newborn had blue eyes. Thank the lord that Lolo had deep blue eyes, like my father-in-law.”
Karisma and Kareena are daughters of Randhir Kapoor and Babita.
