Anil Kapoor, one of the finest actors of Bollywood will be turning 66 yrs old tomorrow and on this special occasion, we need to acknowledge that he has entertained us a lot and given us many moments to cherish.
Anil Kapoor is one of those few actors who not only know the art of stopping the process of aging but he also knows how to grow younger with each passing day. One of the fittest actors of the industry, the “Mr. India” star has completed 40 years in Bollywood and has played characters of various shades in his movies.
Born to movie producer Surinder Kapoor and Nirmal Kapoor, Anil Kapoor made his debut with a small role in Hamare Tumhare (1979) but for the first time he appeared in a leading role in Woh 7 Din (1983) which also starred Padmini Kolhapure and Naseeruddin Shah.
On the completion of 40 yrs in the industry, Anil Kapoor made a beautiful post on 23 June 2023 in which he shared a video from Woh 7 Din, he not only talked about his journey but also thanked the people who have played an important role in his journey.
He wrote, “Today I complete 40 years of being an actor and an entertainer…40 years of being accepted, loved and blessed by you, the audience!
They say when you’re doing something you love, time just flies by…no wonder 4 decades seem like the blink of an eye! This is where I belong this is what I’m meant to do and this is who I’m supposed to be…
So many people have helped me get to this stage in life, but I’d especially like to acknowledge and thank the late Bapu saab, my brother @boney.kapoor and my father Surinder Kapoor for believing in me and for giving me my first chance in #Woh7Din…I’m also eternally grateful to @naseeruddin49 & @padminikolhapure for their grace in welcoming a newcomer. Their stardom made me shine brighter than I could’ve hoped for. I owe everything I am today to these legends, and to the love and acceptance I have found with each one of you.
To mark the completion of these 40 years, I’m coming to you in two very special avatars with The Night Manager part 2 and Animal. I hope you will continue to love and support me the way you have always done”
Anil Kapoor has worked in more than 100 movies and now he is also seen in web-series and his career graph is still far better than the career graph of his daughter and son who are also actors by profession.
In his illustrious career of 40 years, Anil Kapoor has won many awards and recognition including two National Film Awards and seven Filmfare Awards.
We wish Anil Kapoor a very Happy Birthday and hope that he continues to entertain us for a long time.
