Armaan's mother Rima is the younger daughter of Raj Kapoor who is married to Manoj Jain.
The young actor is making his debut in Bollywood with 'Lekar Hum Deewana Dil' and is happy being promoted as Raj Kapoor's grandson.
"In Kapoor family, we talk only about food not about acting. Every time when the family is together we pull each other's leg. There is only noise and food pollution in the Kapoor family... It is a mess but it is lot of fun," Armaan told PTI in an interview here.
The newcomer says he does not feel any pressure to prove himself despite being associated with a family of actors.
"I am very proud, it is an honor to be promoted as Raj Kapoor's grandson. I feel I am lucky to be associated with this name and the family. I do get scared at times of this name. I hope I get it right. But I don't take it as pressure. I will do all the hard work and give my best," he said.
"While I was growing up there was nothing related to films. I hardly saw movies. I think it (surname) can give you an opportunity to meet people... After that everything is in your hands. We are very close knit family we all love each other. I don't see any disadvantage in being associated with a film family," Armaan said.
