Kapur on directing Kapoor in 'Mausam'
Kapur revealed he suggested Abbaji be surrounded by taller bodyguards to subtly reflect Abbaji's authority and power, showing how much he cares about the details.
He also opened up about directing his son Shahid Kapoor in Mausam, calling it a tough but rewarding experience, and said he's proud of Shahid's choices and growth as an actor.
Kapur fondly remembered playing Tarneja in Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro and working with director Kundan Shah.
He also shared how working with NSD's Repertory Company after graduation and during the making of Gandhi was a big turning point: playing Mahatma Gandhi's secretary Pyarelal.
