Actor Harshvardhan Kapoor, son of veteran
actor Anil Kapoor, says his father would
have been a perfect fit for the character of a
common man-turned-superhero in
"Bhavesh Joshi Superhero" had the movie
been made in the 1990s.
"I think if Bhavesh Joshi' was made in the
1990s, dad would have been a very good fit
for the role. He could have done it really well.
Bhavesh is a young guy with a lot of energy,
very extrovert like how dad is.
"But yes, in the second half of the film, the
character changes and that intensity
somewhere reflects me (my personality),"
Harshvardhan told IANS here.
Asked if he finds anything common that he
has inherited from his father as an actor,
Harshvardhan said: "If we talk about our
acting, it is too soon to compare. I think we
have very different personalities.
"I cannot judge my performance, but I think
Mirzya' was made for me... That is pretty
close to my personality as I am quiet by
nature, which is why Rakeysh Omprakash
Mehra sir was very insistent and quite keen
to make the film with me."
Directed by Vikramaditya Motwane,
"Bhavesh Joshi Superhero" is a vigilante film
in which he plays the protagonist, who
along with some of his friends, starts taking
action against the corrupt. The film narrates
how that journey transforms him from a
common man to a superhero.
The film is releasing on June 1 -- the same
date as Harshvardhan's elder sister Sonam
Kapoor Ahuja-starrer "Veere Di Wedding".
The actor believes it is going to be a
celebration for their family.
"It is not a clash for the very simple reason
that if we look at the canvas, both films are
not similarly big. It is not that my 'Bhavesh
Joshi' needs 4,000 screens like it is usually
needed for a Salman Khan-starrer film.
"My film is small, with a certain target
audience. The film will grow at the box
office based on word of mouth. Sonam's
film is an entertaining comedy, a slice-of-life
story of four girls played by stars like
Kareena Kapoor Khan, Sonam herself and
other actresses.
"The genres are different only, so we can co-
exist and we can survive," said the 27-year-
old actor.
