Satish Kaushik On His Friendship With Anil Kapoor: “I Became His Friend & A Family Member…”

Veteran actor Satish Kaushik, who is set for his upcoming film ‘Thar’ which stars the father-son duo of Anil Kapoor and Harshvarrdhan Kapoor, took a walk down memory lane and shared how he and Anil first became friends.

Satish, who has worked with Anil since the early 1980s and has starred with him in a bunch of projects including the memorable sci-fi superhero film ‘Mr. India’, said, “I and Anil go long back. It has been a journey of almost 40 years together. I worked with him in his debut film as a leading man – ‘Woh Saat Din’ – where I had a small role.”

Satish Kaushik shared how the film broadened his understanding of human relationships, “That film made me realise how relationships grow and evolve as with just that two-dialogue role in the film, I became his friend and a family member, for me that is the greatest gift. I remember that I needed a shirt for my part in that film when Anil brought me a shirt and said, ‘You should wear this shirt, it was worn by Rishi Kapoor in ‘Phool Khile Hain Gulshan Gulshan'”.
