Every actor who enters Bollywood wishes to make it big on the big screen while deriving creative satisfaction from the work. However, not everyone is lucky enough to be offered the ‘desired’ roles or have the liberty to experiment. Take for instance Harshvardhan Kapoor . The actor has been experimental with his films, while his father Anil Kapoor goes on to star in some of the most interesting commercial hits. Anil feels that this is great since it give his ‘still naive’ son an opportunity to learn.
In an interview to a magazine, he said, “I feel Harsh is still naive. For example, he’ll say no to very big filmmakers. I hope they understand that he really wants to work with them and means well, but he’s not ready to do those films. I wish he’d at least spoken to me before… But it’s fine… That’s his decision. I was very rigid too. My second film was with Mani Ratnam. I was constantly meeting Shyam Benegal and Mrinal Sen. But there came a time when nobody cast me. I was desperate. Harsh is fortunate in that for his first two films he got to work with Rakeysh [Omprakash Mehra] and Vikramaditya [Motwane]. I would’ve loved to do my first two films with them. But I was in different economic strata and financial situation. So I had to make a few decisions that I didn’t necessarily want to,” said the Mubakaran actor.(ALSO READ: Are Sara Ali Khan and Harshvardhan Kapoor ready to make their relationship OFFICIAL?

In fact, Harsh who accompanied his daddy in the interview said that he wants his daddy to work so that he can be experimental. Jr Kapoor said, “I want him to do more films so that I can be creatively more liberated and make the choices I want.” To this, Anil was promptly added, “By which he means he can be experimental and I make the money. They’re all very selfish. They don’t care about me.”
Indeed the father and son duo had a blast in an interview together. And we are looking forward to see their chemistry in films too.
