Rishi Kapoor is playing an underworld don in Nikhil Advani's forthcoming film D-Day
Highlights
- D-Day director Nikhil Advani, who roped in actor Rishi Kapoor to play a sinister slimy gangster in the espionage thriller, compares the actor's hunger for variety to a child's greed for toys.
- "Rishi Kapoor is like that kid who is in a toy shop and wants everything he sees there. Rishi is like that right now. He is very, very excited. He wants to do everything," said Advani.
- Rishi, the charming chocolate hero of the 1980s, took a U-turn with his role as the dreaded Rauf Lala in Agneepath. The negative role earned him great appreciation from all corners and since then he is scouting for a variety of roles. He was last seen as a cop in Aurangzeb.
- Advani revealed that the 60-year-old actor sees his 30-year-old son Ranbir Kapoor as his only competitor in the industry.
- "I think this is Rishi Kapoor's second innings. According to him the only person he is competing with is Ranbir Kapoor. He only wants to do challenging roles," said Advani.
