Anil was able to forward several stills from the film that he described as ‘The Cinematic Masterpiece’. I had the opportunity to work on a classic that is relevant now more than ever, ‘Taal’, twenty-five years ago Subhash Ghai gave me the chance of a lifetime to be Vikrant Kapoor and I will always thank him for that.
Taal also provided the stage to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Akshaye Khanna, Amrish Puri, Mita Vashisht and many other artists.
Anil Kapoor also mentioned that he shot for the song Ramta Jogi at one go, he dint arrange a rehearsal or two. While Ramta Jogi is one of my favorite songs from the movie what makes it stand out is that Farah Khan was initially to choreograph the song but decided not to at last moment!. Saroj Khan the famous choreographer replaced her on one day prior to the shoot at Filmistan. And me, as I love acting, to the point of agrammaphobia, I did the song without even a preliminary run-through.

It was delight in it of itself to be working with such fabulous partner as this phenomenal dancer, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan! And to add icing to the cake, ‘Taal’ won all the top honours for me, for the best supporting actor of the year at Filmfare, Zee, IIFA and Screen awards. It was really a very nice and a quite necessary to be that humble for some time. Happy anniversary of music, dance and drama and many more in the future.. As if to round out the week of activities marking #25YearsOfTaal, he wrote in the closing note.
On the work front, Anil Kapoor has recently hosted Bigg Boss OTT 3. He was also associated with Divya Khosla’s Savi. He will next be seen in Suresh Triveni’s Subedaar. The project is focused on Anil’s Arjun Singh, who limboes in civilian life, helpless in front of acting upon the strained relationship with the daughter and the society collapse.
