The Jhakkas Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor is celebrating his 65th birthday today and we wish him the best!
On this special occasion, Anil’s elder daughter-actress Sonam Kapoor has penned a sweet note to wish him- Happy Birthday!
In his 4-decade long career, Anil Kapoor has worked in more than 100 movies. However, did you guys know the actor has also sung for his movies?
If this media report is to be believed, the ‘Welcome’ actor is a trained semi-classical singer and had sung the title track of ‘Chameli Ki Shaadi’ (1986), I Love You (‘Hamara Dil Aapke Paas Hai’ – 2000), and Pyar Kiya Nahi Jata Ho Jata Hai (‘Woh Saat Din’ – 1983).
Back in 2016, while talking to HT, Anil Kapoor said, “I learnt semi-classical singing from music director Chote Iqbal, and then I stopped doing riyaaz because I got so involved in acting. I got a lot of playback offers, but I felt that I was not good enough because I had stopped practising. Also, I learnt singing not because I wanted to become a singer, but because it helped me with the lip-syncing for my films. So, in my movies, I am actually singing (those songs), because I don’t like to do things mechanically.”
