Well, apart from Rishi, he worked with Shammi Kapoor in Budtameez, Raj Kapoor in Chhalia, and Randhir Kapoor in Chacha Bhatija, to name a few other Kapoor's. His films may have led to the coining of the term- Suspend your disbelief. Long back, when asked in an interview about why his films don't have logic, he said because he doesn't believe in it. And he cannot put in his films something he doesn't believe in.
His films also led to the coining of the term- Lost and Found. But he refused to take the credit for starting this trend. He felt it was Bombay Talkies's film, Kismet, which was lost and found, Raj Kapoor's Awara was lost and found. He said he came into the picture much later. He was a man gone too soon!
