If
I
had
to
describe
Anil
Kapoor,
I'd
say
he
is
the
most
eminently
likeable
rebel.
He
is
ruling
the
big
screen
since
three
decades.
He
looks
enviously
young,
almost
in
his
late
thirties
and
then
you
see
his
two
beautiful
daughters
in
their
twenties
-
Sonam
Kapoor
(actor)
and
Rhea
Kapoor
(producer),
and
you
start
to
question
-
How
can
it
be
possible?
But
that's
Anil.
He
is
an
easy
going
dude
who
can
make
you
slide
down
the
sofa
while
interviewing
him.
I
remember
the
time
I
met
Kapoor
on
the
red
carpet
in
London
at
the
BAFTA's
during
the
Slumdog
Millionaire
nominations.
Today,
when
I
meet
Anil
at
the
Yash
Raj
Studios
in
Mumbai,
he
came
across
as
the
same
person
I
had
last
met.
He
is
relishing
the
conversation
we
are
having
about
his
film
as
a
producer
titled
Aisha,
which
stars
his
daughter
Sonam.
He
is
all
dressed
up
in
his
grey
jacket
which
adores
his
white
shirt
and
black
jumper
which
fits
perfectly
with
his
black
jeans.
Anil
offers
me
some
Ferrero
Rocher
chocolates
along
with
a
hot
cup
of
coffee
to
make
the
interview
more
relaxed,
just
like
him.
He
stretches
his
legs
and
makes
himself
comfortable
and
candid
while
I
look
in
disgust
and
question
-
Why
can't
I
be
on
the
other
end?
This
special
correspondent
meets
the
unstoppable
Anil
Kapoor.
Aisha
is
a
family
affair.
How
emotional
are
you?
I
don't
really
have
words
for
this
question.
It's
a
feeling
I
can't
honestly
express.
It's
so
many
emotions
mixed
into
one.
Sometimes
I'm
worked
up,
sometimes
I
am
very
detached,
sometimes
I
am
very
aggressive
and
sometimes
I
am
patient
and
compassionate.
After
watching
Aisha,
did
you
recall
the
days
when
you
saw
Sonam,
your
daughter
when
she
was
a
teenager?
Not
only
Sonam,
but
all
the
other
characters
in
the
film
are
relatable.
It's
a
cultural
mix
of
young
dreams
and
values
stuck
in
between.
The
characters
in
Aisha
don't
know
where
to
draw
the
line
and
that's
the
grey
area
of
the
film.
Sometimes
they
overstep
and
sometimes
they
don't.
Aisha
is
a
perfect
film
for
those
youngsters
who
have
their
cultural
values
intact
and
are
still
known
as
'new
school'
with
'old
school'
mentality
intact.
You
see
the
film
working
well
in
the
overseas
market?
Of
course
yes.
The
UK
and
the
US
are
two
big
territories
for
our
Indian
films.
Aisha
will
do
well
in
both
these
countries
because
of
its
common
factor
-
youth
and
their
aspirations.
The
films
look
is
the
first
thing
that
makes
the
audiences
gauge
or
calculate,
to
a
certain
extent,
how
the
film
is
going
to
be.
So
far,
we
have
got
all
positive
response
from
the
first
look
and
a
few
trailers
and
an
even
fantastic
reports
coming
in
after
the
launch
of
its
music.
Yes,
the
music
is
topping
the
charts.
Thanks
to
Amit
Trivedi
who
has
composed
some
of
the
most
melodious
tracks
in
recent
times.
The
title
track
'Suno
Aisha',
'Sham'
and
'Gal
Mithi
Mithi'
are
being
loved
by
all.
It
is
Amit
Trivedi's
finest
work
so
far.
Are
you
motivating
both
your
daughters
so
they
rule
the
industry
for
three
or
more
decades
as
you've
done?
(Laughs)
At
the
moment,
they
are
motivating
me.
'Bacche
Baap
Se
Badhkar
Hai'.
Immediately
after
Aisha
releases,
we've
got
a
few
more
films
which
we
will
be
bringing
to
our
audiences.
Aisha
is
Rhea
Kapoor
all
the
way.
After
your
popularity
in
the
West,
do
you
think
it
will
help
Aisha
garner
more
attention?
If
I
was
acting
in
it,
probably
yes.
Aisha
stands
on
its
own
merit.
It
doesn't
need
my
name
or
my
presence
to
take
it
higher.
It's
right
up
there
at
the
moment.
Even
if
I
was
not
involved
in
this
film,
Aisha
would
still
stand
tall.
I
am
not
trying
to
sound
biased
here
because
both
my
daughters
are
involved.
How
different
is
it
to
see
Sonam
act
in
an
ensemble
film?
I
think,
any
actor,
including
Sonam,
flowers
much
more
when
they
are
in
an
ensemble
film.
If
you
see
Dil
Chahta
Hai,
Rang
De
Basanti,
Sholay,
Deewaar,
etc
are
great
ensemble
films.
Every
character
makes
the
entire
film
look
real.
That's
the
good
thing
about
seeing
many
actors
contributing
to
make
a
film.
And
that's
how
the
film
script
is
written.
Plus,
if
you
are
surrounded
by
good
actors,
it
adds
up
to
the
film
as
one
gets
inspired
and
motivated
to
perform
much
better.
What
do
you
think
about
the
quirky
Abhay
Deol?
I
don't
think
Abhay
is
quirky.
He
is
a
normal
man
with
a
great
acting
ability.
It's
just
that
quirky
is
just
an
image
he
is
enjoying
right
now
with
many
of
his
films
released
(laughs).
Abhay
is
like
any
other
actor
who
I've
met
since
I
started
acting
and
what
makes
all
the
actors
different
is
their
individuality.
