When
Rishi
Kapoor
Got
Candid
About
Playing
Young
Raju
In
Mera
Naam
Joker
In
his
autobiography
Khullam
Khulla,
Rishi
Kapoor
had
mentioned
that
Mera
Naam
Joker
was
when
he
began
to
enjoy
the
film-making
process.
The
actor
had
said,
"For
something
that
would
prove
to
be
a
pivotal
moment
in
my
life,
even
fetching
me
a
National
Award,
it
began
rather
undramatically.
My
father
casually
handed
me
the
script
across
the
dining
table
one
evening.
The
whole
family
was
having
dinner
together
when
he
asked
my
mother
for
permission
to
let
me
play
the
young
joker.
My
mother
thought
about
it
for
a
while
and
agreed,
with
the
caveat
that
it
shouldn't
interfere
with
my
studies
or
my
attendance
in
school.
Papa
assured
her
that
he
would
shoot
my
sequences
only
over
weekends,
so
there
would
be
no
question
of
bunking
school.
I
pictured
us
taking
the
Deccan
Queen
to
Pune
on
Friday
evening,
filming
for
two
days,
and
returning
by
Sunday
evening
to
resume
school
on
Monday."
"As
my
head
swung
back
and
forth
between
my
parents,
listening
to
them
discussing
the
matter
so
casually,
I
couldn't
believe
what
I
was
hearing.
I
could
feel
the
excitement
steadily
growing,
until
I
could
hold
it
back
no
longer.
I
rushed
to
my
room,
pulled
out
a
pad
from
my
drawer
and
furiously
started
practising
my
signature,
for
future
autograph
hunters,"
Rishi
had
revealed.
