Boney Kapoor, has said that he blew a lot of cash on the debuts of his brothers Anil and Sanjay Kapoor. His daughter Janhvi Kapoor and son Arjun Kapoor are both actors, but he did not produce either of their starring roles in their first movies.
Anil received his Bollywood debut opposite Tabu with Prem in 1995, while Sanjay received his with Boney’s production Woh Saat Din in 1983. Anil had already made his acting debut in smaller roles, but his role as the lead actor in Woh Saat Din opposite Padmini Kolhapure and Naseeruddin Shah was a first for him. Bapu directed the production. Sanjay’s debut turned out to be a box office flop, and it took many years before it was finally released in theatres.
When asked why he declined to produce Arjun, Janhvi, and Khushi’s debut movie, Boney responded to Dainik Bhaskar in an interview, “It was our decision. No one could stop me when I debuted (brothers) Anil and Sanjay. Shakkar me itna gud milaya ki diabetes ka khatra ho gaya, and main shakkar pe gud milata rehta hoon (I keep adding sugar to jaggery and that turned into a diabetes threat). I did not spare any details when I launched my brother. “Paid a lot of money, spent a lot of money,”
“So, I decided someone else should launch the kids,” he continued. When everyone is ready to enter the profession, I will invest my funds in accordance with their market worth. Arjun, the son of Boney, made his film debut in Ishaqzaade, an Aditya Chopra movie, while Janhvi made her Bollywood debut in Dhadak, a Karan Johar production. Khushi, his other daughter, will shortly make her Bollywood debut in Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies.
