"I think that to be a star, you need at least 10 to 15 hit films behind you. It's not easy to become a star. It's a long journey and I feel Utkarsh has the calibre to pull a film on his shoulders. If the script is right, nothing can go wrong," Anil told IANS.
"Utkarsh has always been a very sharp student. Besides, he did his direction and acting course from Los Angeles. He is a brilliant child and he is very focused with his work," he added.
Utkarsh worked as a child artiste in his father's directorial 'Gadar: Ek Prem Katha'. He essayed the son of characters played by Sunny and Ameesha Patel.
Talking about 'Genius', Anil said: "This script has an unusual subject. I have been working on this script for the last two years. The film is set in today's time and it's not a period drama.
"I can't reveal much about the film right now. It's a very young and youthful film."
'Genius' will go on floors from November.
