Director Shelly Chopra Dhar REVEALS CUTE things about Father-Daughter duo, Anil Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor on the set

Celebrities

Feb 222018

HT Exclusive: Interview Of Bollywood Actors Sonam Kapoor And Anil Kapoor Director Shelly Chopra who is making her directorial debut with ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga’ is feeling ecstatic about her film and finds the father-daughter duo, Anil Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor endearing.

Real-life father-daughter Anil Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor will be seen sharing screen space for the first time in the film.

Shelly shares, “On their first day together, I gave the clap and called it a historical shot as it was the first time we had two big stars who are also father and daughter. Anil is a typical dad who asks us to take Sonam’s shots first; I find it endearing. We have been shooting at night and it gets nippy at times, so Sonam is constantly checking up on her father.”

The film’s shoot commenced last month, where Anil Kapoor and Madhu Malti started to shoot in Patiala while Sonam Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, and Juhi Chawla joined the sets later.

The film will also revive Anil Kapoor’s cult song ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga’ and interestingly, even the films title is based on the song.

The film ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga’ will mark the directorial debut of filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s sister Shelly Chopra Dhar.

Produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra under the banner Vinod Chopra films, ‘Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga’ is directed by debutante director Shelly Chopra Dhar and is slated to release on 12th October 2018.

Sonam Kapoor: Dad is never critical of me; he thinks I'm the best

As she kicks off 2018 with a hit, Sonam Kapoor on teaming up with Anil Kapoor after a decade in Bollywood and being in a ‘happy space’ professionally

Anil Kapoor and daughter Sonam Kapoor

“It has taken me 10 years to work with my father,” says Sonam Kapoor, overjoyed to be sharing screen space with Anil Kapoor in Shelly Chopra’s Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga. The actor recalls watching him enact scenes when she would visit his film set as a child, never pausing to think that she would share the frame with him someday.

Having already shot for a week in Patiala, Sonam says of her father-cum-co-star, “I’m more excited than nervous to be working with him. We never interacted in a professional capacity, not even during the shoot of our productions Khoobsurat (2014) or Aisha (2010).”

Considering the years of experience Anil brings with him, one can’t help but wonder if he gives her advice after a shot or helps her better a scene. “My father is never critical of me. My mother is [critical], but not him. He thinks Rhea [Kapoor, sister] and I are the best, and loves the way we handle our work. Dads are usually like that with their daughters,” she smiles.

The opportunity to perform with her father aside, Sonam has much to cheer about — her latest outing, Pad Man, has set the cash registers ringing. But the actor says that success, to her, isn’t just about box-office numbers. “To me, it’s the satisfaction of a job well done. Not many people get to live their passion. I have that privilege and have never taken it for granted. It is an amazing experience to be someone else for the camera, to make someone else’s mistakes, and empathise with their joys and sorrows. I am in a happy space currently.”

She insists that her championing the cause of menstrual hygiene doesn’t end with the film’s release. “I’m grateful to the viewers for coming out in such numbers to watch a film based on a subject that is considered a taboo in India. It signifies that we are ready to talk about things that have not been easy to discuss for ages. That is what movies do. If my voice can bring attention to a cause, I will gladly use it.”

Anil Kapoor's New Look From Race 3 Is Here & Now We Know Why He Got That Grandpa Beard

Celebrities

Jan 072018

Everyone’s favourite Anil Kapoor is the one and only constant actor in Bollywood. He has been around for almost four decades and is still going strong. While in B-town, actors keep changing in various franchises, Anil Kapoor happens to be the directors’ favourite.

Be it his equation with the people or his acting, the man knows how to give his best in both. Talking about the ‘Race’ franchise, the ‘Jhakaas’ actor is the constant factor and we are not complaining. While people are anticipating for the third instalment of the film, we got hold of some leaked pictures that give us a glimpse of Anil Kapoor’s character.

The look has gone viral as you spot Anil in a prisoner’s avatar. What has left us intrigued is what has detective Robert D’Costa aka R.D. of ‘Race 2’ done to land up in a prison? From being a detective to a prisoner, that’s quite a twist we must say.

Exclusive first picture of #AnilKapoor from the sets of #Race3 at Film City, Goregaon.

Just recently, Anil was spotted with the white beard and everyone was stunned to see that. But now we know why he got that grandpa beard after all.

Well, Anil is the perfect example of versatility and keeping him intact in the ‘Race’ franchise is the best decision ever. Even Salman agreed with it after all he welcomed the 61-year-old actor saying, “Inke aane se Race3 ka cast aur ho gaya jhakas”. And there is no one who can say otherwise.

In fact, the actor recently also celebrated his birthday onset with Salman Khan and shared the pictures on Twitter. He captioned it saying, “Who says an on-set birthday has to be boring?! My Birthday was made extra special by the @SKFonline & @tipsofficial teams! Thank you all for your love & wishes!”

Apart from Salman and Anil, ‘Race 3’ also has Bobby Deol, Jacqueline Fernandez, Daisy Shah, Saqib Saleem and Freddy Daruwala playing some pivotal roles. The film is expected to hit the screen on Eid 2018.

Just recently, even Bobby Deol’s transformation for the film created quite a stir on the Internet. As for Anil’s look, all we can say is ‘Jhakaas!’

Ranveer is a fan of Mr Jhakaas and the two seem to believe in Big B’s iconic line from Sharaabi (1984) – moochein ho toh Nathulal jaise ho, warna na ho.
