From Bollywood to Hollywood, versatile actor Anupam Kher has done it all. We all know how talented he really is. And now the 57-year-old is listed among the Five Best Actors in Asia by a Hollywood Reporter in its latest issue.
“Happy to share. Hollywood Reporter in its latest issue has listed me among the five best actors in Asia. I am the only Indian. Jai Ho!,” Kher tweeted Saturday night.
“Other four actors are – Li BingBing (China), Lee Byung-Hun (South Korea), Iko Uwais (Thailand) and Aaron Kwok (Hong Kong),” he wrote.
Signed to London-based united agents, Kher is now getting Hollywood’s attention for his supporting role as a psychiatrist in David O. Russell’s awards- season contender SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK, in which he co-stars with Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence and Robert De Niro.
“As an actor, it has always been very important to keep growing,” Kher tells the Hollywood Reporter, “‘To me, the country of a film’s origin is not important, the profile of my part in what matters.”
During his three-decade career, Kher has been featured in more than 450 films, making him one of Indian cinema’s most respected actors.
Boasting a rich variety of roles, from the dramatic (Saraansh) to the comic (Ram Lakhan), Kher has also won acclaim for his appearances in international projects, which include Gurinder Chadha’s Bend It Like Beckham, Ang Lee’s Lust, Caution and Woody Allen’s You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger.
