:''for the Bollywood film see Vidya (film)''
thumb|Sarasvati, Vidya goddess.
Vidya, Vidhya (''vidyA'' in Romanized transliteration) is a Sanskrit name for knowledge.
It is frequently used in Hinduism as honorific stemming from the Puranic conception of knowledge and learning. ''Vidya'' is an epithet of the Hindu goddess Sarasvati, consort of Brahma according to Hindu beliefs. She has superior spiritual feminine energy or the Param Prakriti, which purifies, empowers and uplifts the individual. Hence, She is called the Goddess of Learning.
Vidya as the Absolute Supreme[link]
Translation: You are my mother, my father you are, You are my brother(relative), and my (every) friend; You are knowledge and my wealth you are, You are (in) everything to me, God of all Gods.
Festivals [link]
During Navaratri, on the 9th day, every house ceremoniously keeps books and all musical instruments near the puja place early at dawn and worship her with special prayers. On this day no studies or any performance of arts is carried out, as it is considered that the Goddess herself is blessing the books and the instruments. When the festival concludes on the tenth day of Navaratri or Vijaya Dashami as its popularly known, the goddess is worshipped before the books and the musical instruments are removed.Small children of 2-3 years start studying on this day which is called Vidyarambham (Commencement of Knowledge). Each person will wear new clothes and traditional attire and start learning something new on this day. Gurus (teachers) are worshipped on this day as the embodiments of Goddess Sarasvati.
Opposite of Vidya (right Knowledge) is Avidya (ignorance/wrong knowledge/misinformation/disinformation)

With this, he achieved his objective of portraying Mahatma Gandhi, a role he had auditioned for Richard Attenborough's Gandhi. In 2000, he again portrayed the Mahatma, this time on film, in Hey Ram.
He played the villain with dual identity of a Ghazal singer and Pakistani spy who supports terrorism in India in Sarfarosh (1999).

Making his acting debut in the 2007 film ''Saawariya'', for which he won the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut, Kapoor earned positive notice for his performance in ''Wake Up Sid'' (2009). He later appeared in the romantic comedy ''Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani'' (2009) and the political thriller ''Raajneeti'' (2010), with the later being his biggest commercial success to date. In 2011, Kapoor starred and earned wide critical acclaim for his performance in ''Rockstar'' for which he received the Best Actor and Best Actor (Critics) awards at the Filmfare ceremony.
Early life[link]
Kapoor, the son of actors Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh, was born into a family of Punjabi origin; his sister is Riddhima Kapoor Sahni. He is the grandson of actor and filmmaker Raj Kapoor, great grandson of Prithviraj Kapoor, nephew of actors Randhir Kapoor and Rajiv Kapoor, grand-nephew of actors Shashi Kapoor and Shammi Kapoor, and first-cousin of actresses Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor. Kapoor studied at Bombay Scottish School in Mahim, Mumbai and went on to pursue method acting at The Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York.
Career[link]
Before starting off his career as an actor, Kapoor appeared in two short films: ''Passion to Love'' (2002), which was also directed by him, and ''India 1964'' (2004). He later began working as an assistant with director Sanjay Leela Bhansali, where he was involved in the making of the film ''Black'' (2005). Kapoor who initially had plans of becoming an actor was later cast by Bhansali in his next directional venture, ''Saawariya'' opposite newcomer Sonam Kapoor. The film failed to do well at the box office, though his performance was largely appreciated. Kapoor was then seen in Siddharth Anand's romantic comedy ''Bachna Ae Haseeno'' (2008) alongside Bipasha Basu, Minissha Lamba and Deepika Padukone. The film was a semi-hit at the box-office.2009 saw Kapoor appear in three movies. His first release was Ayan Mukerji's ''Wake Up Sid'', in which he portrayed the character of Siddharth Mehra, a spoiled and self-centered college student from Mumbai. Featured opposite Konkona Sen Sharma, the film was a critical and commercial success. Shrey Patnaik wrote, "Ranbir's Sid is a near-perfect portrait of the aimless young man searching for a direction in life. Ranbir handles the character's inner life with the effortlessness of a Sitar maestro twiddling with his instrument's strings to create a music that takes the audience to a world where the sounds suggest a harmony between art and life. In Wake Up Sid, Ranbir proves once and for all that he's the future of Hindi cinema." Kapoor earned several nominations for Best Actor. He next starred alongside Katrina Kaif in ''Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani'', which surfaced as one of the biggest hits of the year.
Following this, Kapoor appeared in Shimit Amin's drama ''Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year''. Upon release, the film received positive reviews by critics but failed to do well. Kapoor's performance was critically acclaimed, with one critic writing, "Ranbir brings to his part a whole lot of earnestness and heart. His natural and utterly contagious exuberance so much on display in his last two films ''Wake Up Sid'' and ''Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani'' is effortlessly curbed here."
In 2010, he featured in Prakash Jha's multi-starrer political thriller ''Rajneeti''. The film opened to positive reviews and was declared a "blockbuster". His performance was well received with critic Nikhat Kazmi concluding, "The film finally belongs to Ranbir Kapoor who perfects the art of minimalism -- and literally grows before your eyes -- as the simmering volcano that cannot be held back, once it erupts. He's as grey and soot-filled, as volcanoes go." In the same year, Kapoor appeared alongside Priyanka Chopra in Siddharth Anand's ''Anjaana Anjaani'' which was a moderate box office success.
2011 saw Kapoor feature opposite newcomer Nargis Fakhri in Imtiaz Ali's ''Rockstar''. The film, upon release, met with positive to mixed reviews and grossed over Rs.1 billion worldwide In a review published by CNN-IBN, Rajeev Masand wrote: "''Rockstar'' belongs to Ranbir Kapoor over everyone else. It is a riveting performance [...] and Ranbir roots it in the real. Watch how he seizes the stage in the "Sadda Haq" number and virtually makes the track his own. For Ranbir alone, this film deserves a watch." The film earned Kapoor a Best Actor and Best Actor (Critics) award at the 2012 Filmfare awards ceremony.
As of April 2012, Kapoor is scheduled to appear in Anurag Basu's ''Barfee'' alongside Priyanka Chopra and Ileana D'Cruz and Ayan Mukherjee's ''Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani'' alongside ex-girlfriend Deepika Padukone.

Career [link]
As an actor [link]
1980s[link]
Kapoor made his Bollywood debut with Umesh Mehra's ''Hamare Tumhare'' (1979) in a supporting role. After a few minor roles in films such as ''Hum Paanch'' (1980) and ''Shakti'' (1982), he got his first leading role in the 1983 Hindi film, ''Woh Saat Din''. Kapoor later tried acting in Tollywood and Sandalwood, and appeared in Bapu (artist)'s Telugu film ''Vamsa Vriksham'' and Mani Ratnam's Kannada debut film ''Pallavi Anu Pallavi'' released in 1983.Next, he appeared in Yash Chopra's drama ''Mashaal'' (1984) as a ''tapori'', for which he won his first Filmfare Award in the Best Supporting Actor category. His ''tapori'' persona and stubble look was considered unconventional at the time, but would later become more fashionable in India many years later. Kapoor's 1985 releases included ''Yudh'' and ''Saaheb''.
Going on to deliver huge commercial success with films like ''Meri Jung'' (1985), a career-defining role of an angry young lawyer fighting for justice, which eventually established Kapoor's credential as a mature actor and both audience and critics gave their thumbs up to his performance. Kapoor played a comic tapori in ''Karma'' (1986), the biggest hit of the year. Also in 1986, Kapoor played the role of a care free playboy in the hit ''Janbaaz'', costarring Feroz Khan. Kapoor's other release of 1986 ''Insaaf Ki Awaaz'' was a box office hit. In the same year Basu Chatterjee directed ''Chameli Ki Shaadi'' and he displayed his crackling flare in comedy.
Kapoor generated wide applause from audience of all walks of life for his title role in Shekhar Kapur's sci-fi film ''Mr. India'' (1987), the biggest hit of the year. The film became one of his biggest box office hits and shot him to superstar status. Anil kapoor was equally impressive in Mahesh Bhatt directed film ''Thikana''. In 1988, he was rewarded with his first Filmfare Best Actor Award for his rivetting performance in the hit film, ''Tezaab'', the biggest blockbuster of 1988. Anil proved to be the only saving grace even in flops like ''Ram-Avtar''. The following year he delivered more mega commercial and critical successes with ''Ram Lakhan'' (which became the second highest box office earner of 1989) and the audience went berserk with the song ''One Two Ka Four''. In the highly acclaimed film ''Parinda'', Kapoor played his role with conviction, and his biggest achievement was displaying the vulnerability of his character so perfectly. In ''Rakhwala'', Kapoor played a tapori again and the film was declared a success. Kapoor excelled in his eccentric portrayal of an autistic person in the 1989 hit, ''Eeshwar'' and this film proved his versatility as an actor.
1990s[link]
The year 1990 saw him play a dual role, as twin brothers in the highly successful ''Kishen Kanhaiya'' and in the same year he further attained reasonable box office success with ''Ghar Ho To Aisa''. Kapoor came up with a critically acclaimed performance in ''Awaargi''. Many critics called that his best performance ever. This was followed by a restrained yet striking performance as a middle age man in Yash Chopra's romantic drama ''Lamhe'', a landmark film of Indian cinema and Yash Chopra's best work to date. It was the first film in which he appeared without a moustache. Although the film was a box office failure in India, it proved to be a success overseas. Kapoor's 1991 release, ''Benaam Badshaah'' was accorded above average status at the ticket window.In 1992, Kapoor received his second Filmfare Best Actor Award for his hard-hitting performance in Indra Kumar's ''Beta'' — the biggest blockbuster of the year — opposite Madhuri Dixit. Kapoor was highly impressive with his comic act in ''Khel'' and his comic timing was one of the highlights of the film. In 1993, Boney Kapoor's much delayed mega-budget, ''Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja'' was a disaster at the box office and damaged Kapoor's reputation as the industry's biggest star at the time. The only major success in these years was ''Laadla'' with Sridevi, a film produced by Nitin Manmohan. Kapoor gave a splendid performance as a simpleton lover in the hit musical ''1942: A Love Story''. His 1995 release, ''Trimurti (film)'' was a box office disaster, though Kapoor's performance was creditable. Kapoor came up with a decent performance in the average performer ''Gharwali Bharwali''.
After a few box office failures, he had box office success with films like ''Loafer'' (1996),. In ''Judaai'', Kapoor's depiction of a loving husband twisted between his two wives was appreciated and this film fared well at the box office. ''Deewana Mastana'' (1997), ''Biwi No.1'' (1999) and ''Hum Aapke Dil Mein Rehte Hain'' (1999) were box office hits. Kapoor’s unusual characterization of a zealous, crooked musical superstar in ''Taal'' (1999) shocked both audience and critics alike. He also won rave reviews for his superb performance in ''Virasat'', a remake of the Tamil film, ''Thevar Magan'' (1992), in which ''Kamal Hassan'' had played Kapoor's role. He also starred in the unsuccessful ''Jhooth Bole Kauwa Kaate'', which was legendary filmmaker Hrishikesh Mukherji's last commercial release, along with Juhi Chawla. He shaved his moustache once again for the film, in the second half, where he played actor Sajid Khan's wife and his delightful comic timing was a real treat to watch.
2000s[link]
Kapoor's first release of 2000 was ''Bulandi (2000 film)'', in which he played a double role, showing restraint and maturity as the elder Thakur. He won his first National Film Award in the Best Actor category for his role in Rajkumar Santoshi's critically acclaimed ''Pukar'' in 2000. Kapoor again tasted critical and commercial success with ''Hamara Dil Aapke Paas Hai'' in 2000. Kapoor stole the show as Rajeev in the much delayed, ''Karobaar'', a film directed by Rakesh Roshan, where Kapoor’s dialogue delivery was appreciated. He delivered a powerhouse performance in Shanker's ''Nayak'' which is considered to be his best performance by many.In 2002, Kapoor gave an excellent performance in the role of a fat man in ''Badhaai Ho Badhaai'', a takeoff from the Hollywood hit, ''Nutty Professor''. He notched up yet another glorious performance in the Indra Kumar directed film ''Rishtey''. In ''Om Jai Jagadish'', he gave an amazing performance. Kapoor shared the screen with Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan for the first time in ''Armaan'', and underplayed his character of a neurosurgeon superbly.
In his 2003 release, ''Calcutta Mail'', he delivered one of his best performances. His character was defined with ample scope to perform in this screenplay-driven performance and in spite of the strong supporting cast, this really came out as Kapoor's one-man show. He ignited the silver screen with an authoritative performance in ''Musafir''. Kapoor gave an incredibly restrained performance as the stricken husband in the thriller ''My Wife's Murder'', which he also produced. Anees Bazmee's super-hit comedy ''No Entry'' (2005), followed for Kapoor that year. The film went on to become the highest grossing film of the year. He was also in the film Bewafaa, playing a rich businessman who is forced to marry the sister of his wife after she passes away in childbirth.
Kapoor played a grey character with finesse in the 2005 thriller, ''Chocolate''. Anil's first release of 2007 ''Salaam-e-Ishq: A Tribute to Love'' was a box office hit in overseas though a flop in India. Anees Bazmee's ''Welcome'', which released on 21 December 2007 and was declared the biggest success of the year. Kapoor's understated performance in Subhash Ghai's ''Black and White'' was highly lauded. His first release in 2008, Abbas Mustan's thriller, ''Race'' became a box office hit. Vijay Krishna Acharya's, ''Tashan'' marked Anil's comeback to Yash Raj Films but failed to do well at the box office.
His most recent films were his first English-language film, ''Slumdog Millionaire'', which was released on 12 November 2008, and ''Yuvvraaj'', which was released on 21 November 2008. ''Yuvvraaj'', with Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif in the lead roles, failed to do well at the box office. On the other hand, ''Slumdog Millionaire'' has won a number of international awards and received rave reviews from critics, costing only US $15 million to produce, but pulling in more than $352 million worldwide. In January 2009, he attended the 66th Golden Globe Awards ceremony along with the team of ''Slumdog Millionaire'', which won four Golden Globe Awards. Kapoor demonstrated his well-known enthusiasm after Slumdog won the Academy Award for Best Picture (one of eight awards). also received a nomination for Best Ensemble at the Black Reel Awards of 2008 and has won the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture.
2010s[link]
In 2010, Kapoor starred in the eighth season of the American television series ''24'', portraying Omar Hassan, President of the fictional Islamic Republic of Kamistan. In October of that year he was cast to play a villain in both ''Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol'' (released in December 2011) and ''Power''. Power was to be directed by Rajkumar Santoshi but was shelved due to unknown reasons. Other projects that he currently has in the pipeline include Cities (a Hollywood project co-starring Clive Owen and Orlando Bloom), Mr. India 2, the sequel to No Entry, Priyadarshan's Tezz with Ajay Devgn, Race 2 and Sanjay Gupta's Shootout at Wadala.

He produced the movie ''Shortkut: The con is on'' starring Akshaye Khanna and Arshad Warsi. In 2010, he produced the movie ''Aisha'', starring his daughter Sonam Kapoor and Abhay Deol in the lead roles. The film performed moderately at the box office, grossing Rs. 15.50 crore in its theatrical run. He has acquired the remake rights for the American TV success, 24, reportedly for an amount of INR 100 cr.
