Anil Kapoor, who has collaborated with Anupam Kher and witnessed his artistic genius firsthand on movie sets and screen, refers to the seasoned actor as “one of the biggest risk takers of our industry!”

For Anil, Anupam is a source of motivation and an example for anyone with the courage to pursue their dreams. Anil believes that Anupam’s desire to leave his mark on the world of film is demonstrated by the fact that, despite being a Hindi-medium boy, he crossed over and collaborated with some of Hollywood’s finest filmmakers and actors!

“Anupam Kher has been one of our industry’s biggest risk-takers. He is the group’s joker, a multi-talented chameleon. Anupam is one of the greatest performers to have emerged from India, and I have had the pleasure of getting to know and work with him” said Anil.

He added, “The fact that a boy who was raised in Hindi was able to succeed in Hollywood is evidence of his desire to leave his mark and to use his career to honor his family”. He has collaborated with some of the world’s and India’s biggest and most renowned directors.

Anil Kapoor hopes that Vijay 69, Anupam Kher’s upcoming Netflix streaming release, will be a huge worldwide success! Following successful films like The Romantics, The Railway Men, and Maharaj, YRF Entertainment is producing Vijay 69, which is the company’s fourth partnership with Netflix.

“Vijay 69 is a testament to his hard work and acting genius. Anupam is still eager for work and recognition at the age of 69, which inspires me as well. He is well-read, humorous, disciplined, and a wonderful buddy who enjoys life to the fullest” added the actor.

Anupam and Anil have been friends for years, and they have a strong affinity for fitness! The two go to the gym and encourage one another to exert more physical effort during their workout.

“We share a passion for fitness, which I like, and I enjoyed working out with him as we challenged one another in the gym. Anupam is still a young lad at heart at the age of 69, and he can push himself in the gym, I promise” said Anil Kapoor.
