Raj Kapoor Cried Watching Dev Anand's 'Guide', Then Insulted Director Vijay Anand

  • Raj Kapoor, known as Bollywood's showman, was deeply moved and cried profusely after watching Dev Anand and Waheeda Rehman's film 'Guide'.
  • Despite his emotional praise for the film to Dev Anand over the phone, Raj Kapoor repeatedly insulted and feigned ignorance of director Vijay Anand (Goldie) in person.
  • Raj Kapoor made an urgent, late-night demand to watch 'Guide', leading Dev Anand to send the film print to RK Studio at 2 AM.
  • Dev Anand considered Raj Kapoor's emotional reaction and praise for 'Guide' as a greater recognition than any award.
  • Vijay Anand was disappointed by Raj Kapoor's repeated dismissive attitude, but the film's success remained unaffected.

Why It Matters: Raj Kapoor's contrasting reactions to 'Guide' – emotional praise for the film, but public insult for its director.
