After 30 long years, veteran actor Shashi Kapoor's son Kunal will be seen in the Akshay Kumar-starrer Singh Is Bling.
Kunal takes on the role of a debonair, loving father to Amy Jackson.
The last time Kunal was seen in a film was way back in 1985 in Shyam Benegal's Trikal. He then turned to the world of advertising and a few years ago, took over the running of Prithvi Theatre from sister Sanjana Kapoor.
But what prompted him to make a comeback to films? We have producer Ashvini Yardi to thank. Kunal told a section of the media that he agreed to be a part of the film only because of the producer.
Ashvini has done what even Salman Khan could not. It seems Salman tried convincing Kunal to be a part of Jai Ho, the film that Kunal's company was line producing. But he just could not bring himself to do it.
We're just glad that we get to see yet another Kapoor light up the screen.
