Rishi Kapoor and his actor son Ranbir Kapoor had an impromptu meeting with Hollywood star Robert De Niro here. The Bollywood veteran was impressed by the "Raging Bull" icon's demeanour.
Rishi, who is currently undergoing a medical treatment in US, shared a selfie with Ranbir and De Niro.
"Wow moment. Impromptu meeting with Robert De Niro on 65th and 3rd. He knew Ranbir because he had met him and Anupam (Kher) and said come over with Kher for a drink! Simplicity and super stardom," Rishi captioned the image.
"I realised I have been such a bloody brat. Cannot get over his demeanour. Thank you Bob," he added.

Anupam has worked with De Niro in "Silver Linings Playbook", and he is currently in the US to shoot American show "New Amsterdam".
On the acting front, Rishi will next be seen in "Rajma Chawal", directed by Leena Yadav. It revolves around a father-son relationship in today's time.
Ranbir and Neetu Singh have been with him through the month as he undergoes treatment but the exact nature of his ailment has not been revealed yet. However, rumour mills have been working overtime and speculating that he too may be having cancer. However, his family including son Ranbir and elder brother Randhir Kapoor has refuted the claim.
Speaking about it, Randhir had told Times of India in early October, “We don’t know yet what is the exact nature of his ailment. Rishi himself doesn’t know what he is suffering from. He hasn’t even started undergoing tests there; how can people speculate that he has cancer and that too, one that has escalated to an advanced stage.”
Meanwhile, Alia visited Ranbir in New York and pictures of her time with her boyfriend and his parents have been all over the internet. Not just that, at the time of Ranbir’s grandmother Krishna Raj Kapoor’s cremation, Alia had FaceTimed Ranbir to ensure he knew exactly what was happening here.
