Kader Khan has acted in a few films in the recent past, but unfortunately none of them made an impact on the audiences. He was last seen in Arjun Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha starrer Tevar. Before that, he featured in Salman Khan starrer Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, which released in 2004. From negative roles to comic roles, Kader Khan has portrayed different roles in his career spanning over 4 decades. He has worked in over 350 films such as Coolie, Beta Dus Numbri, Baap Numbri, Hum, Bol Radha Bol, Raja Babu and Aankhen etc. The veteran actor is in late 70’s, suffering from knee problems, and has been a victim of death hoaxes many times.

Kader Khan and Amitabh Bachchan have been good friends from very long. When Kader entered politics, the Piku actor advised him to stay away. Kader said in a statement, “He was sweet enough to advice me that politics is not a good game and that it was not meant for me and vice versa. He also said that I will not be able to withstand that place. And despite that, if I stepped into politics, he will personally tell people not to vote for me. Amitabh has always been a well wisher of mine, yaar! He never wanted me to get into politics”.
