Race 3 star Anil Kapoor has been associated with the word ‘veteran’ for a while now, and not for nothing. Today, the actor is celebrating completing 35 long and fruitful years in the film industry. Anil, who has another reason to celebrate, thanks to the success of Race 3, tweeted about his golden years of cinema today.
His tweet read, “What a journey it has been! So many characters, so many opportunities to grow and all the endless memories. I don’t really remember the life I had before I entered the movies because I truly started living on the silver screen…Blessed to be living my dream! #35yearsandCounting.”
The actor shared the heartfelt post with an infographic that represents all the popular and successful movies he has been associated with over the years. Anil’s first film was as a young Shashi Kapoor in 1971 in the movie Tu Payal Mein Geet, but the movie was never released. Later, in 1979, Anil had a cameo appearance in the film Humare Tumhare but his first role as a leading man was in the film Woh Saat Din. Anil is primarily known for his work in the films Mr India, Tezaab, Lamhe, 1942: A Love Story, Nayak, Taal, Slumdog Millionaire, and Dil Dhadkne Do.

The year 2018 has turned out quite well for the star, as he has not only tasted success as an actor with Race 3 but also as a producer, thanks to the multi-starrer Veere Di Wedding which had also featured his daughter and actor Sonam Kapoor in a pivotal role. Both Race 3, as well as Veere Di Wedding, have proved to be major box office successes.

As far as future projects are concerned, Anil has his plate full. The actor will next be seen in Fanne Khan, where he will be sharing the screen space with Aishwarya RaiBachchan after a gap of 19 years. The actor will also feature in the movies Total Dhamaal and Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga.

Emma Thompson: I was always paid less than my male counterparts

Emma Thompson says she was always paid less than her male colleagues. The 59-year-old actor-writer said women are still treated as “second-class citizens”. She also advocated to publish salaries to reveal the gender pay gap. “I was always paid less than my male counterparts. Publishing figures is the first step. “It’s a forensic way of looking at how women are second-class citizens, and I appreciate that because it’s not emotional. This is the fact: this person does the same work for less money, and that’s just wrong,” Thompson told Good Housekeeping magazine.

Bobby Deol was the ‘it boy’ of the 90s but will his comeback still hold that charm?

With his curly hair, bobbling head and round sunglasses, we still think of “ Duniya Haseeno Ka Mela ” when we think of Bobby Deol. After a string of popular films like Gupt and Soldier among others, Bobby made quite a name for himself in the 90s. Bobby was never known for his acting chops. What he was known for was his swag, even though the word did not exist back in the day. His undeniable charisma and those long wavy hair made him stand out in the crowd.

His older brother  Sunny Deol  was already the  dhai -kilo-ka-haath man and here was Bobby, trying to make googly eyes at the ladies.
