Anil Kapoor
Born in 1959 to Shammi Kapoor's secretary Surinder and Suchitra Kapoor, Anil Kapoor grew up in a modest Chawl in Tilak Nagar, a fan of Bollywood classics and Raj Kapoor's charisma. After a brief stint as a child artist in an unreleased film, he pursued acting formally, joining Roshan Taneja's school after being expelled from college. His breakthrough came in "Hamhare Tumhare," and with over 100 films under his belt, he has become a prolific and respected actor, even earning Screen Actors Guild recognition for Danny Boyle's "Slumdog Millionaire." Kapoor has also ventured into production and casting, nurturing a family legacy with his daughter Sonam following in his footsteps.
