Rishi’s ‘old’ look, a guarded secret

Rishi Kapoor plays an 80-year-old man in Divya Kumar’s Sanam Re
Rishi Kapoor plays an 80-year-old man in Divya Kumar’s Sanam Re and 90-year-old man in Shakun Batra’s Kapoor & Sons. Needless to say, Rishi who is 62, was made to use heavy make-up to look the part. But both the filmmakers are taking care to see that the look is not out before the film is.
Says a source, “Rishi’s look for both the roles is being fiercely guarded by the makers of the two films. It is the USP of both Sanam Re and Kapoor & Sons. T-Series, the producers of Sanam Re have rushed forward to ensure they get into theatres first.”
Apparently Rishi’s role in Sanam Re is inspired by Philip Noirette’s role in the Italian classic Cinema Paradisio. Sanam Re will release on February 12, 2016 while K&S will be out in March.
