Bollywood actor Kunal Kapoor has been part of the industry for decades now. With superhits like Rang De Basanti under his belt, the actor still has miles to go. The actor who is also an ardent writer says, “I’ve been writing stories since my days as an assistant director. And I would love to bring those stories to life not only as an actor but also as a producer and director. As an actor, you have little control over what stories you get a chance to tell. You can only choose from what you are offered and you’re part of someone else’s vision. But as a producer, you have a chance to bring your own vision to life.”

 

The Dear Zindagi actor is now planning to make a biopic of Shiva Keshavan, who is considered the fastest man on ice. he represented the country in six consecutive Winter Olympics and was also its lone representative during the 1998 and 2002 Games. Speaking on the same he said, “He is an amazing athlete. What drew me to Shiva Keshavan was not only the fact that he has represented India in the Olympics six times, but that it was also a story about the spirit of India and the incredible things we manage to achieve with limited resources. It’s a story of resilience and the path less taken; it’s also a celebration of our culture and diversity.” Kunal was last seen in Koi Jaane Na which also had Aamir Khan in a cameo.
