Back in 2014, Randhir Kapoor claimed his daughter Kareena Kapoor did not want to have children. But now in 2022, she is enjoying blissful family life with her husband Saif Ali Khan and her two sons Taimur and Jeh.
In a recent interview, actor Randhir shared how he had to work hard to manage the expenses of his family. “I wish I was young today. Aaj kal ke actors kitna saara paisa kamate hai (Today’s actors make a lot of money). We worked really hard to earn money. The tuition fees of my children, my electricity bills, Babita ke kharcha (wife Babita’s expenses), my scotch, were all paid from the money that I earned from acting in films,” he said.

Randhir’s rapport with his daughters and son-in-law Saif Ali Khan is like a “normal family” and they do not talk about work at all. “We do not advise anyone about their careers. We laugh, crack jokes and pull each other’s leg and talk about the things that are happening in our lives.”
The actor, despite being separated from his wife, has never shied away from talking about his personal life, raising two daughters and the respect he and Babita still hold for each other.

“Well, I still have just one wife and two daughters. Nothing around me has changed in all these years. The only thing that has happened is that I don’t live with them anymore. The girls are married and have their own homes. And Babita is in a happy space by herself. She’s not got married again and nor does she intend to, neither do I. She continues to be my wife and I continue to be her incorrigible, horrible husband. So be it,” he said in an interview in 2016 and added, “My children are settled. In fact, both my daughters are wealthier than I am and I keep asking them to adopt me as their father so that I can also be rich. I still meet Babita for dinner sometimes, we eat and laugh. That is the way we are.”
