Randhir Kapoor, an actor-director belonged to the famous Kapoor clan, the most respected film families in Bollywood. Babita also hailed from a film family. She is character actor Hari Shivdasani’s daughter and niece of Sadhana, a very popular and one of the most beautiful heroines of the 1960’s. Something sparked when these two young hearts met for the first time which culminated into a beautiful relationship and marriage later.

Randhir worked as a child artist in many films and turned hero with ‘Kal Aaj Aur Kal’, a romantic drama which got released in the year 1971. He also marked his directorial debut with this movie which was being produced under the banner of his father Raj Kapoor. The heroine of this movie was none other than Babita who had already worked in a number of successful films before. Randhir had a crush on Babita since his school days, so he could not think of any other heroine when he was making his very first film. Upon its release, ‘Kal Aaj Aur Kal’ went on to be moderately successful at the box office. However, Randhir and Babita were appreciated everywhere because of their on-screen chemistry. Right after the release of this film, both decided to marry. Some family members were against this marriage, but they bowed down to their children’s decision.

Adurthi Subba Rao, a very famous director and producer had recast this pair again in his film ‘Jeet’ in 1972, after their marriage. This film was a Hindi remake of Rao’s Telugu film ‘Poola Rangadu’. But, this film did not do well. When Randhir married his school crush people said they would make the perfect couple and generations will see their eternal love, but after a few years of bliss, they got separated. They have two daughters, Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor, and both are well-known actress in the Bollywood.
