The Pukar actor has been a part of the film industry for 40 years. "Amitabh Bachchan Ji, Dilip Kumar sahib, Akshay Kumar, Jeetendra, we all did these films, which I believe played a very important role in our longevity. If we are here in Bollywood for so many years, these films have played a major part," PTI quoted Anil Kapoor as saying. He also said that it is 'extremely important' for young actors to do films which could be watched by the whole family as it will help them survive in the film industry for a longer time.

"After a long time, we are seeing a film which is a family entertainer which all can watch together. The best part about all of Anees' films is that they don't have a single double meaning dialogue, which will make you uncomfortable while watching with your family. When was the last time you watched a film like this?," PTI quoted Anil Kapoor as saying.
