The 'Jhakass' actor has shown a unique style of finding new work in films. In a recent interview with portal Film Companion, Anil Kapoor shared how he has roped in Abhishek Bachchan for the job.
Anil said that he is only taking a cue from the book of yesteryear superstars such as Dilip Kumar and Raj Kapoor. He said they would often recommend each other for film roles, which they thought would better suit their colleagues. He added that he has told Abhishek to pass roles that his dad, Amitabh Bachchan has rejected, to him.
“That’s why I call up Abhishek and say ‘jo jo films daddy nahi karenge mere paas bhej dena (whatever films your dad rejects, send them to me)’,” Anil said. “Tu bhi nahi karega, teri bhi koi film ho toh mereko bhej dena (Send me films that you reject as well),” he added. Given his ageless looks, the actor was confident that he can pull off both age brackets.
The actor of multiple blockbusters also keeps busy with a strict workout regime. Even in lockdown, he is making sure that his health does not take a backseat. On Instagram, Anil shared a few pictures that show him working out at home and motivating fans to stay fit. “You are your own motivation! #StayHomeStayFit #MondayMotivaton #LockdownSpiritsUp,” Anil captioned the post. He added: “Challenges are what makes life interesting.”
Anil is in lockdown with his wife Sunita. His daughter Sonam is in Delhi with her husband Anand Ahuja and his parents. The younger couple flew out of London right in time before the lockdown was announced in India. Sonam had said in an interview that they wanted to be near their parents in case of any emergency.
