About Rishi Kapoor’s character


He’s an Indian film actor who has a reputation for being prickly and aggressive. He can come across as he does because of his fixation with image, but when push comes to shove, he’s loyal to his friends. All said, he’s always dapper and classy. His passion is playing cricket—he doesn’t let age stand in his way, even if it means battling with players half his age.

About Karan Johar’s character


While there are several mentions of a senior actor in Anurag Kashyap’s new movie Bombay Velvet, one character who has caught attention is that of an elderly man named Pushkar Nath Pandit. Actor Anupam Kher plays the role and has made full use of his theatrical skills to get into character. The director himself was taken aback by his work, saying in an interview: Anupam sir had prepared for over three hours before coming on set.

How did they cast Anupam Kher?


It’s hard to imagine any other actor in the role of Pushkar, but Kher was definitely not a top contender for casting. If there was another good actor from India that I liked who would have been available, I probably would have gone with them, wrote director Kabir Khan in an interview with BuzzFeed.

How did they make him look like him in those years?


I tried to gain as much weight as I could. I am about 6 feet tall and for every inch I put on, my appearance changed a lot so putting on that 30 pounds was not easy at all. It took me 2–3 months to put it on, but just prior to shooting, I started working out and lost most of it because you can’t work out while shooting. So when we had 5 days off after 3 months of shooting, I gained 15-20 pounds again.
