    Mumbai, August 2024 – The 2011 film “Rockstar,” directed by Imtiaz Ali and starring Ranbir Kapoor, has become a cult classic over the years. Recently, the film was re-released in theaters and enjoyed renewed success, earning over 1 crore at the box office even after 12 years. In a surprising revelation, Imtiaz Ali shared that he had once lost the original script of “Rockstar” and had to rewrite it—thanks to Ranbir Kapoor’s memory.

    A Forgotten Script and a Remarkable Memory

    Imtiaz Ali recently disclosed that during the early stages of planning “Rockstar,” he had misplaced the script. This unexpected setback could have stalled the film, but Ranbir Kapoor’s uncanny recollection of the story saved the day. Imtiaz shared that he and Ranbir had known each other from before, largely due to the connection through Rishi Kapoor, who starred in Imtiaz’s film “Love Aaj Kal.” Despite knowing each other, they had never collaborated until “Rockstar.”

    Imtiaz recalled their first meeting, where Ranbir surprised him by bringing up the “Rockstar” script, which Imtiaz had never discussed with him. Ranbir told Imtiaz that he had heard about the story from a friend and proceeded to recount it in detail. Impressed by Ranbir’s enthusiasm and memory, Imtiaz asked if he would be interested in starring in the film. Ranbir immediately agreed, and this led to Imtiaz rewriting the lost script specifically for Ranbir.

    The Journey of “Rockstar”

    “Rockstar” was not an instant box office hit when it first released in 2011. However, over the years, the film gained a strong following, with many fans considering it a defining film in Ranbir Kapoor’s career. The film’s portrayal of a passionate musician’s journey, coupled with its soulful music by A.R. Rahman, resonated deeply with audiences. The film also marked a significant collaboration between Ranbir Kapoor and Imtiaz Ali, showcasing their combined talent.

    Imtiaz Ali mentioned that despite its lukewarm initial reception, the film has now earned the status of a cult classic. The recent re-release of “Rockstar” saw a positive response, with fans flocking to theaters to relive the emotional and musical journey. The film earned more than 1 crore within two weeks of its re-release, highlighting its lasting appeal.

    Awards and Accolades

    “Rockstar” not only became a fan favorite but also garnered critical acclaim. Ranbir Kapoor won the Best Actor award at the Filmfare Awards, as well as the Best Actor in Critics category. The film’s music, composed by the legendary A.R. Rahman, also received widespread praise, earning him the Best Music Director award. The soundtrack, including songs like “Nadaan Parindey” and “Kun Faya Kun,” remains iconic in Bollywood music history.
