Aditya Rawal recalls Anil Kapoor`s advice in Subedaar
Recalling an experience during an action sequence with Anil Kapoor, when he was hesitant to perform a move in front of the Bollywood titan, Aditya shared, “There was an action scene, and I have to kind of like raise my hand (on him) and I was a bit hesitant because it is Anil Kapoor in front of me. Sir sensed my hesitation and simply put his arm around me and said, `Tu tension mat le zara bhi tu kar jo tujhe sahi lagta hai…hum ek baar karenge sahi se karenge ekdam`…That liberated me completely and gave me the confidence to perform that scene. That could only happen because of his experience and generosity.”
Aditya also recalled what his father, Paresh Rawal, told him while he was going to share the screen space with Anil Kapoor. “He just said that you`re going to have the time of your life working with Mr. Anil Kapoor, because the passion that he has will motivate you, and you will get to learn so much from him. I`m sure you are going to come back with a smile on your face,” shared Aditya.
