Mumbai: For Anil Kapoor, doing both television shows and films is a tough ask and he looks up to Aamir Khan for inspiration. Anil has been maintaining a fine balance by doing both television show and films.
At the trailer launch of '24- Season 2', Anil said, "It is a tough ride to do both TV and films. Aamir Khan has always been a leader and inspiration. He is younger than me and sometimes you learn from them."
He further added, "I remember while doing 'Satyamev Jayate' he did nothing else. I have had lot of film offers including an international film but I couldn't do it as I had to shoot in July-August. We will focus on '24'."
The first season of his television show '24', based on the American series of the same name, came in 2013 and now the actor is back with the second season. "I work in films as well. I was committed to do two films - 'Dil Dadakane Do', 'Welcome Back'. The kind of show '24' is we need to do that kind of preparation. Writing also takes time. In the future we would take less time," he added.
On the other hand, Aamir was totally amazed with the quality of work happening on television with shows like Anil's '24'. He said, "One of the few actors I like to see on screen is Anil Kapoor. I look forward to his work. I think the energy that Anil has is amazing, he has child-like curiosity and enthusiasm about the work he does and I love that about him."
Aamir was all praise for the show, he said, "It (trailer)was amazing. I can't imagine to see this scale...I feel like I am watching film, there is no difference. It's wonderful to see this quality of work happening on television. Abhinay Deo has done wonderful job. There are no doubts in my mind that it is going to fly."
