Anil Kapoor on family keeping him grounded
Talking about how his family keeps him grounded, Kapoor said, “No one is my fan at home. As I was leaving today for the trailer launch, I told my wife I was heading out. She asked, ‘Which film?’ She has no idea what’s happening in my professional life- and that’s the kind of family I come from. They treat me exactly the same. Sometimes I even ask for Rs 10,000–15,000 in cash before going for a shoot.”
Kapoor has often spoken highly of his wife Sunita, crediting her for playing a significant role in his journey as an actor. He has previously shared that during their dating years, Sunita supported him financially while he was struggling to establish himself in the industry.
About Subedaar
The trailer of Subedaar plunges into India’s rugged heartland, where illegal sand mining fuels a land ruled by fear and silence. Retired Subedaar Arjun Maurya returns -disciplined, battle-scarred, and grieving- until his path collides with Prince (Aditya Rawal).
Kapoor anchors the film with simmering intensity, delivering the powerful line, “Fauji hai, seene mein goli jhel sakte hai, beizzati nahi.” What follows is a tense and brutal face-off, while his strained relationship with his daughter Shyama (Radhikka Madan) deepens the emotional stakes. Gritty yet deeply human, the film promises a searing clash of ego, pain, and survival.
Speaking about the role, Kapoor said, “Playing Subedaar Arjun Maurya has been one of the most powerful and emotionally demanding experiences of my career. The character is defined by discipline, sacrifice, and deep personal loss. It also marks my first collaboration with Suresh Triveni, Vikram Malhotra and Prime Video. Their commitment to scale and authenticity gave us the freedom to tell this story with the intensity it deserves.”
