No Actor In Bollywood Wanted To Sign Khoobsurat Opposite Sonam Kapoor, Reveals Anil Kapoor

Fawad Khan became an instant sensation in Bollywood after he made his debut opposite Sonam Kapoor in Khoobsurat and he has every leading actor in Bollywood to thank for it! You might ask why? Well, a recent revelation by actor and producer Anil Kapoor indicated that no actor in Bollywood was keen on doing the role in Khoobsurat and that led to the discovery of Fawad Khan.

In an interview with ANI Anil Kapoor said, "We still kept looking for an apt actor and Rhea (Kapoor) told me about Fawad Khan and showed me some of his work." Well, the Fawad Khan fans in India are certainly indebted to Rhea Kapoor for bringing him to Bollywood! The matter though also brings to light the fact that actors in the industry certainly have their qualms about signing films where women are in the limelight.

Anil Kapoor also added that he is proud of Rhea Kapoor for the kind of films she is producing with his production company. The duo so far has made films like Aisha, Khoobsurat and Veere Di Wedding together and have certainly gathered a great following for them.

Anil Kapoor’s daughter Rhea and Sonam are currently in the French Riviera for the Cannes Film Festival.
