Mumbai:
One look at the poster of Rockstar and one wonders if director Imtiaz Ali is inspired by the late Raj Kapoor's Awara. Can't blame the young director since his hero is the grandson of the legendary showman and it's only natural for him to follow in his footsteps.
Interestingly, this seems to be more than just a coincidence. Like Raj Kapoor kissing his favourite co-star Nargis in the 1951 classic Awara, the actress Ranbir is seen kissing on the poster of Rockstar is also called Nargis.
Never mind if her surname is Fakhri, but the RK production's inspiration appears to be perfectly followed by the Kapoor scion. And we like it!
