When Rishi Kapoor was offered role in Pakistani movie! - Details inside

New Delhi: Bollywood veteran Rishi Kapoor is one tough man. It isn't easy to cast him in a film. You will be amazed to know that the 63-year-old actor was reportedly offered a Pakistani movie. Yes, you read that right.

“He was approached for a major role in the sequel to a Pakistani comedy called Jawani Phir Nai Ani (2015). Film-maker Nadeem Baig has directed it. However, he politely turned down the offer,” a source told Hindustan Times.

Apparently, he further served the filmmaker an interesting piece of advice.

It added, "he told the director that instead of casting an Indian actor in a Pakistani film, he should focus on getting Pakistani movies more prominence in India. Kapoor believes that if Indian films can work in Pakistan, then Pakistani movies, too, can have an impact on the audience in India."

Rishi was last seen on-screen in Shakun Batra's 'Kapoor & Sons'. The flick was declared a Box Office success.
