He still has Krish Raichand’s cherubic charm but of course, he’s all grown up now with rock-hard abs and a chiseled jawline. It seems only yesterday that he was delivering the iconic zindagi mein kuch banna ho,” line in front of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in one of Hindi cinema’s most enduring films, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. But here he is, in the flesh, talking about his passion for cinema. T come from an old school of thought.
I love going to the cinema, I love purchasing the ticket and buying that tub of popcorn and just enjoying the whole theatrical experience,” he says with a smile, adding: A Rohit Shetty film is a Diwali film, a family film, you laugh, you enjoy, it’s pure popcorn. Karan Johar’s films make you cry. Rajkumar Hirani makes you do both. Imtiaz Ali makes you feel heartbreak. Sanjay Leela Bhansali makes you realise how big and beautiful cinema can be. I can go on about cinema for hours.”
