Ranbir is an uncle!

Rishi Kapoor's daughter Riddhima delivered a baby girl yesterday afternoon

Ranbir Kapoor's sister Riddhima delivered a baby girl yesterday afternoon in New Delhi. The newborn has been named Samara.

Says a friend of the family, "The Kapoors are overjoyed. They have been celebrating as the congratulatory phone calls have been pouring in."

Riddhima and her Delhi-based businessman hubby Bharat Sahni were married in 2006.

Adds the family friend, "Rishi is a nana, Neetu a naani and Ranbir a maama! It still has to sink in."

The entire family was present at the hospital at the time of her delivery. Rishi's sister Rima Jain was also there.

Ranbir had always stated that he would make it a point to be with his sister when the bundle of joy would arrive.

Hrithik's hero: Rishi Kapoor

Hrithik Roshan finds inspiration in the unlikeliest of persons

Rishi Kapoor has found an admirer in his Agneepath co-star Hrithik Roshan.

The two have been shooting high-octane action sequences for the Karan Johar production for two weeks now at a mill in central Mumbai. When Rishi bounced back after a seemingly bad accident, he won the respect of the younger star.

A source dishes the details, "In one scene, Kapoor gets punched by a junior artiste. He fell, landing heavily on his back. He was obviously hurt.

HR and director Karan Malhotra rushed to his side to make sure he was fine. Hrithik even insisted on calling a doctor."

They were stunned when the plump actor got up, nonchalantly brushed himself off and continued shooting as if nothing had happened.

Hrithik even remarked, "Hats off to you, Chintu uncle! I could never have managed what you did today.' He later told friends that his admiration grew for the veteran actor that day."

Bad fall

Duggu confirms, "Chintu uncle has always been a source of inspiration for me. And he continues to inspire. I was amazed at his level of strength and fitness while shooting the action sequence.

He took some bad falls and was bruised and scarred at the end of the day's shoot but just kept going!"
