It’s never too late to do something in life. Boney Kapoor who has been one of the most established names as a producer in the industry is all set to make his acting debut as he plays Ranbir Kapoor’s father in Luv Ranjan’s next. The actor will play Dimple Kapadia’s husband in the untitled film which also stars Shraddha Kapoor.
Today Janhvi Kapoor spoke to E Times and had a candid conversation about her dad’s debut and how she and her siblings coaxed the producer-father to take up the film. She says that not only her, but even her sister Khushi, Arjun Kapoor and Anshula asked him to take up the role. “We are very excited. We really wanted him to do the role. He was quite apprehensive when the offer came along. But Arjun, Anshula, Khushi and I drove him to do it,” said the actress.
Boney Kapoor has already shot for his portions for the film, however Janhvi didn’t get a chance to watch him act on the set. Janhvi was busy shooting for Good Luck Jerry and hence she missed the opportunity to be on the set, however she even admits, had she been on the set it would have been weird. “I would have felt awkward to go to his shoot as I have always seen him giving instructions and not taking them. Let it all unfold on the big screen. You know what! It will be really cool to see him acting; I have often seen him emoting and feeling songs while he watches them on TV, he loves to do that with songs on a few music channels. I’m sure he’ll do a good job.” Now isn’t that cute!
Janhvi Kapoor has recently wrapped up shooting for Good Luck Jerry. She will be next seen in Dostana 2 alongside Kartik Aaryan and the film will resume soon with a new location. Can’t wait for this comic-caper on the big screen.
