Aarti Sabharwal and Rajiv Kapoor: Bollywood actor Rajiv Kapoor passed away on Tuesday at the age of 58 in Mumbai, after suffering a massive heart attack. Fondly called 'Chimpoo,' he was a prominent member of the Kapoor film family and the youngest son of legendary actor Raj Kapoor. English actress Julie Andrews's babysitter role in the movie Mary Poppins was quite popular amongst the audience. She looks charming and innocent, and was apt for nanny's role. With Chimpoo Uncle(Rajiv Kapoor) Ranbir always opened up his heart,spoke his mind. He will miss Chimpoo Uncle the most,” a friend of the Kapoors told me. After losing his father last year in April this is the second blow in a row for Ranbir.

Plot[edit]
Maharaj Singh is a proud owner of several derby-winning stallions, and lives in a palatial farmhouse with his wife, Rukmini and young son, Chimpoo. One day dacoits attack his farmhouse with a view of stealing the stallions, but Maharaj fights them, killing the son of the leader of the dacoits, Maan Singh. Maan Singh swears to avenge the death of his son, and abducts Chimpoo. Years later, a servant of Maharaj, Ram Singh, brings a young man named Badal into the Singhs lives, and tells them that he is their missing son Chimpoo. Both Maharaj, Rukmini, and their daughter, Sunita, are delighted at having Chimpoo back in their lives. Then Badal and Sunita fall in love with each other. It is then Badal confesses to Maharaj that he is not Chimpoo, but a former convicted jailbird, who was asked to impersonate him by an embittered Ram Singh. Maharaj does not want to relay this information to an ailing Rukmini, and decides to keep it quiet for the rest of their lives. But sooner or later Rukmini is bound to find out - especially when Badal and Sunita openly show their love - will this shock of an intimate brother and a sister spare her or has fate something else in store for her?

Chimpoo Video Song 2019
From his entire Kapoor family,it was Ranbir that the late Rajiv Kapoor was closest to. Not much of a talker, Rajiv poured his heart out to Ranbir whenever they met.
“They were really close. In fact Ranbir was closer to his uncle(Rajiv) than his father at one point of time. It was only when Chintuji(Ranbir’s father Rishi Kapoor) fell ill that Ranbir became close to his father. With Chimpoo Uncle(Rajiv Kapoor) Ranbir always opened up his heart,spoke his mind. He will miss Chimpoo Uncle the most,” a friend of the Kapoors told me.
