Director Anees Bazmee, who has
collaborated with veteran actor Anil Kapoor for the fifth time with the
film "Mubarakan", says there is great understanding between them.
Bazmee and Anil have previously collaborated in entertainers like "No
Entry", "Welcome", "Welcome Back", "No Problem".
"I have written a lot of films for Anil Kapoor and have known him for a
long time now. One day, as a writer on a film in which Anil ji was also
acting, the director of that film was not well. So I was told to direct
a scene with Anil Kapoor. After that shot, he told me that whenever you
direct your film, I would love to act in it," Bazmee said in a
statement.
"He was very happy with me that day and told me that I directed that
scene with so much clarity," he added.
The director has also written "Laadla", which featured Anil and
directed him in "No Entry", "Welcome" and "Welcome Back".
"After all these years, there is great understanding that we have with
each other on the sets and we don't have to explain anything to each
other much. We both know each other's strengths," he said.
"Mubarakan" also features actor Arjun Kapoor in a double role along
with Athiya Shetty and Ileana D'Cruz.
The film is produced by Sony Pictures Networks Productions and Ashwin
Varde and Murad Khetani's Cine1 Studios and is slated to have it's
worldwide release on July 28.
