Rajiv Kapoor (born 25 August, 1962) is an Indian film actor, producer, director and a member of the famous Kapoor Family.

Early life

He is the youngest son of famous actor/director Raj Kapoor.

Career

He had a short stint in the Hindi film industry, acting in only 13 films. He was not as successful as his other brothers Randhir and Rishi, but he is noted for his role in "Ram Teri Ganga Maili" (1985) starring opposite Mandakini which was one of the biggest hits of the year. He acted in a string of other unsuccessful films and made his last film appearance in "Zimmedaar" which released in 1990. He then turned to producing and directing. He produced "Henna" (1991) which was directed by his brother Randhir and then made his directorial debut with "PremGranth" (1996) which starred his brother Rishi and Madhuri Dixit. After that film became a "disaster" at the box office, [ [http://boxofficeindia.com/showProd.php?itemCat=202&catName=MTk5Ng= BoxOffice India.com ] ] he didn't direct again.

In 1999 he produced "Aa Ab Laut Chalen" which was directed by his brother Rishi. Since then he has not been active in film producing or directing. In 2001, he married an architect Aarti Sabharal, but the marriage ended in divorce two years later.
