Anil Kapoor recently reflected on the 41st anniversary of the 1985 film 'Yudh.' He revealed that dancing with veteran actress Hema Malini was a significant source of nervousness for him during the film's production. Kapoor confessed that this particular aspect of 'Yudh' proved more challenging than portraying a double role. He humorously recalled his younger self, a "skinny young boy" just beginning to make his mark, struggling to match the immense star power and grace of Hema Malini, who was already a national icon.
Directed by Rajiv Rai, 'Yudh' featured a star-studded cast including Jackie Shroff, Tina Munim, Pran, and Danny Denzongpa, with Hema Malini and Shatrughan Sinha in special appearances. Looking ahead, Anil Kapoor is set to appear in the Netflix series "Family Business" alongside Vijay Varma. His upcoming projects also include 'Alpha,' an action entertainer touted as the next installment in the YRF Spy Universe, starring opposite Alia Bhatt and Sharvari. Additionally, Kapoor is slated to feature in Shah Rukh Khan's 'King,' which will pair SRK with his daughter Suhana Khan for the first time on screen.
