Three days a week he is on dialysis. He does watch TV be it films or anything. He is surrounded by family members.<br /><br />"I did take him once to see Rockstar, he liked Ranbir's performance but was not aware that he was his nephew. He also likes Kareena's work," Kunal added.<br /><br />Shashi Kapoor's hand impression tile was unveiled by Kunal on behalf of his father for 'Walk of the Stars' at Prithvi Theatre.<br /><br />Kunal feels honoured to launch his father's tile in his presence.<br /><br />All through out the occasion, Kapoor who is wheel chair bound, folded his hands in a gesture to thank everyone. When the tile was unveiled he even clapped.<br /><br />"It is a good way to honour and acknowledge artistes who have contributed to the film industry. My dad was a very good actor..
