Actors Rishi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan are to work together in their upcoming movie '101 Not Out' and Rishi Kapoor couldn't be more excited about it. The actor has experimented with a multitude of interesting roles throughout the span of his career and has thus far nailed every single one of them. Talking about his career in Bollywood, the actor stated, “I started with Bobby in 1972 and ended up working in many films that proved to be a hit and a few films that were a flop at the box office. At the same time, I have thoroughly enjoyed playing all these roles. Even the third generation in our family watches my yesteryear films today. What more can I wish for? It is a pleasure that even the current generation loves me and knows me from my old films.”
“Today filmmakers wish to cast us in various roles. I turned a villain in Agnipath. It was a path-breaking role for me. However, I wasn’t confident enough to portray this character and felt insecure thinking if I could do justice to the role of a pimp,” the actor continued. He further stated, “Today the stories are different and challenging. Audiences are smart and we need to cater to them with alluring stories since they can differentiate between good and bad cinema. So filmmakers need to come up with refreshing stories. They cannot fool the audiences today.”
Talking about working with Amitabh Bachchan, Rishi said, “I am looking forward to 101 Not Out, for which I have already finished shooting. I am looking forward to this film with Amitabh. We are coming together after so many years. It was great doing films together.” When asked if there's a chance that the Kapoor family will ever share screen space together, the actor replied, “Presently, there is no chance for audiences to watch us together. The three of us haven’t signed any films together. Though if the script is good, then we will surely take up a film.”
