In a recent interview with ETimes, Anil Kapoor opened up about the time his family was going through a tough time financially, and how he took up certain films just for the money. He shared, "I can even name them -- 'Andaz' and 'Heer Ranjha'. After 'Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja', the family was in a crisis and each one of us did what we had to do for survival, out of a sense of responsibility. I have no qualms about admitting that."
He added, "My family and I are fortunate that those times are behind us and our circumstances since then have not been as tough. But if our luck takes a turn and we ever face bad times again, I will not think twice about doing whatever it takes to take care of my family."
Anil Kapoor also spoke about how there was a time when some people thought he won't be able to make it in the industry, but he was determined. "I suppose it came from a deep sense of purpose and awareness of what I had to offer to the world. I just knew in my bones that I had to give my all to this. So, I did just that, without a care for where the path might take me and without a shadow of doubt about the choice I had made."
On the work front, Anil Kapoor was last seen in the Netflix film AK Vs AK. The actor has another film, Jug Jugg Jeeyo, in the pipeline, which also stars Neetu Kapoor, Kiara Advani, Varun Dhawan, and Prajakta Koli.
