Anil Kapoor (Source | GQ India)
Anil Kapoor is killing it on the cover of GQ this month. He looks fresh as ever and the cover story reveals some fun details about this ageless actor.
While talking about his entry in the movies in the early ’80s, he said…
I wasn’t like the other heroes, I didn’t feel adequate, mostly because I was told I wasn’t good-looking. I didn’t have the ruggedness or chiseled handsomeness of Sanjay Dutt or Jackie Shroff or Sunny Deol. Nor the height nor the gruff voice of Amitabh Bachchan.
Could you be more humble?
He also spoke about why he went to great lengths to hide his Dil Dhadakne Do look from the media…
The media in this country is regressive. I didn’t want to answer incredulous questions about why I’m playing Priyanka Chopra’s father. They wouldn’t get it. And it’s not my job to educate them.
Point taken, sir!
