Recently, Rajat Maheshwari from Indore, India asked this question:

"When does Raj Kapoor introduce himself as Ranbir Raj in a movie?"

[Note: This is interesting because it is his own name in real life.]

I vaguely remembered that it was in Shree 420 (1955) and said so. Later I verified that it was correct.

Here is a page from my copy of the HFGK Volume 3 and a short clip from the film. By the way, Nargis father is Ramesh Sinha.
