Anil Kapoor Begins Shoot for American TV Show Next Month


Actor Anil Kapoor, whose film career has received an alltime boost with the success of Slumdog Millionaire, has been milking it for all its worth. Lady Luck also seems to be shining on him. Actor Irrfan Khan, who was also in the movie and is a known face internationally, could not manage to get even half that much attention. In fact, it would not be wrong to say that he was overlooked as Anil suddenly became the new star.

AR Rahman won the Oscar, and it has been Anil who has been giving more interviews than the maestro. Well, Anil does not have another Hollywood film in hand, but what he does have is a TV show in US. The actor has reportedly been signed on for the TV show 24, where he will be playing a Middle Eastern leader. He begins shooting for it next month. The actor will be accompanied by his own makeup guy and has made it a point to include this fact in his contract with the show. Apparently, he has a winner on hands as his children are the ones who have given him the go ahead for the movie. Earlier, it was on his children's insistence that he accepted Danny Boyle's offer for Slumdog Millionaire. Incidentally, 24 is an action packed series, which stars Keifer Sutherland in the lead.
