Ranbir Kapoor, who is expected to direct Amitabh and Abhishek Bachchan in his directorial debut late next year, missed an opportunity to team up with his dad in the recently released "Rocket Singh - The Salesman of The Year" because producer Aditya Chopra thought it wasn't a good idea.

"The entire Yash Raj team was all for casting Rishi Kapoor as Ranbir's boss. Only Adi (Aditya Chopra) thought the audiences would not accept Rishi Kapoor as a negative boss to his own son. We had to relent," said a source.

Rishi confirms that he was indeed considered for Ranbir's boss' part in the film.
