Shammi Kapoors son Aditya Raj Kapoor is set to debut as an actor at 53
When you are born into the illustrious Kapoor family of Bollywood,you cannot stay away from the silver screen for long. Erstwhile actor Shammi Kapoors son Aditya Raj Kapoor too seems to have realised this. Aditya,who always chose to stay away from the glitzy and glamorous world of films,will be making his acting debut at the age of 53 with the Jag Mundhra-directed Chase. I wanted to understand life and look at it from another viewpoint. I wasnt ready to act,rather,I wasnt prepared, he says. But now I feel I am ready to begin my film career. And with the quality of content in films reaching newer heights,he is sure to find his spot in the sun.
A fourth film is also in the pipeline,but he feels it is too early to talk about it. Aditya,who,for a long time,was busy constructing amusement parks in the country and also working towards child education,got his first dose of the Hindi film industry when he was working alongside Raj Kapoor as an assistant. It was an enriching experience, he reminisces. And about his father,he says,My dad is happy that I am doing films. When I told him about my projects,he told me,Finally,you have returned home. We couldnt agree more.
