Anil Kapoor in a scene from Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol
If you were a Bollywood fan during the late 1980s to the 1990s, you’d be no stranger to the name Anil Kapoor. From Mr India to Tezaab to Ram Lakhan to 1942: A Love Story, Anil was such a ubiquitous leading man of his time that he is often identified as the face of Bollywood cinema at that time, paving the way for the era of indomitable Khans – Shah Rukh, Salman and Aamir.
Known for his rakish good looks and affable onscreen personality, he is one of those that have successfully parlayed their hearthrob status into not just commercial success, but also critical acclaim, both in Hindi cinema as well as internationally – he holds five Filmfare Awards, a National Film Award, and even a Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Cast (in Slumdog Millionaire).
