Mumbai. Every festival is celebrated with great pomp in the film world. Every member associated with the film world seems very excited about the festivals. When it comes to Holi (Holi 2023), its fun is also visible in Bollywood. Talking about Holi and not talking about RK Studio, this cannot happen. This studio of Raj Kapoor was famous for Holi and every film star used to be a part of this Holi meet forgetting all the grievances.
An important part of Bollywood and Raj Kapoor’s life, this studio was sold in May 2019. The rights of this studio were taken by the Godrej group. Actually, in September, a fire broke out in this studio during the shooting of a dance reality show and due to this there was a lot of damage. Randhir Kapoor had said in one of his interviews that due to the location of the studio, no one wants to shoot there now. This is the reason why the decision to sell the studio was taken with a heavy heart.
