At a preview screening of Tevar on Tuesday evening for his family and friends in Mumbai, producer Boney Kapoor found it too hard to keep his emotions in check.
A guest at the screening who is very close to the Kapoors said, “Boney waited to work with his son. He didn’t want Arjun to be launched like a pampered star-kid. Only after Arjun had done three films did Boney make a film with him. So it was like a long wait to do what any successful producer would have done without a thought.”
Apparently Boney had made it a point to not see any portion of Tevar until the entire film was finally over. So overwhelmed was Boney with his son’s performance that he couldn’t control his emotions.
He says, “I’ve been there when my two brothers Anil and Sanjay were launched. But when Arjun was launched, I was not part of the project. Now that he has finally worked with me in Tevar I can very comfortably say I am very proud of my son. He has evolved as an actor. He doesn’t need his father to produce films for him. There will be an even longer queue of producers at Arjun’s doorstep after Tevar.”
Buzz is that Boney is already planning another project with his son. It could be a sequel to Tevar depending on how big a blockbuster Sanjay Kapoor’s debut production turns out to be.
