"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," Ranbir said.

Ranbir Kapoor was speaking at the book launch of Rahul Rawail's book - "Raj Kapoor: The Master At Work". Ranbir added that he would like to make a film on Raj Kapoor. Ranbir also added that he "would like to have a drink with him, just chat with him about life" if he were alive. "I'm very much interested in making a biopic on his life.
