"A
Raj
Kapoor
film
like
Satyam
Shivam
Sundaram
that
exploited
Zeenat
Aman's
sensuality
didn't
work
but
when,
a
small
film
like
Julie
is
a
100%
draw
from
day
one,
then
it
is
labeled
as
a
mere
skin-show
film.
Isn't
that
a
bit
unfair," asks
actor
Sanjay
Kapoor
who
is
awaiting
the
release
of
his
next
film
Unns.
He
further
added
that
a
big
budget
Amitabh
Bachchan,
Akshay
Kumar
starrer
Family
didn't
work
in
spite
of
heavy
publicity,
but
a
small
three
four
crore
movie
like
Malamaal
Weekly
with
no
big
names
in
it
is
doing
excellent
business.
"You
never
know
what
the
public
wants,"
he
says.
In
a
way
he
justified
his
game-plan
of
doing
small
budget
films
like
Julie,
Sauda,
Unns,
his
forthcoming
Beach
with
Hrishita
Bhatt
and
director
Sudhakar
Bokade's
comeback
vehicle
Why.
"Qayamat
was
a
big
budget
film
and
it
went
on
to
do
good
business.
These
days
there
are
two
stages
of
film
making.
One
is
the
high
budget
films
with
maximum
publicity
and
then
a
smaller
three
crore
film
that
can't
afford
to
spend
another
two
crores
on
publicity.
But
in
a
smaller
film,
the
probability
of
producer
recovering
his
cost
is
higher
if
the
film
is
well
made," says
the
youngest
Kapoor
in
a
family
of
producers.
It
was
time
to
ask
something
about
Unns,
his
next
film
that
is
releasing
shortly.
"Unns
is
an
Arabic
word
meaning
love.
Now,
it's
not
a
Yash
Chopra
or
Karan
Johar
film,
so
for
people
to
be
interested
in
coming
and
watching
it,
we
needed
an
unusual
title.
It's
basically
a
story
of
a
married
couple.
I
play
a
husband
who
loves
his
wife
knowing
well
that
she
has
a
past
but
is
willing
to
forget
it.
It
is
always
the
woman
who
compromises,
but
in
Unns,
it
is
the
man
who
is
bearing
the
pain."
Other
than
Sanjay
Kapoor,
Unns
also
stars
national
award
winning
Bengali
actress
Rituparna
Sengupta
as
the
wife
and
Juhi
Babbar
is
their
common
friend
who
also
happens
to
be
a
lawyer.
So,
do
we
have
some
skin
show
in
Unns
as
well?
"No,
there's
nothing
of
that
sort,
but
yes
in
my
other
film
Beach
you
can
see
some
masti
and
mazaa,"
he
laughs.
Farah
Khan
recently
said
that
she
loves
the
Paaya
at
Sanjay
Kapoor's
house.
"Farah
is
a
great
friend.
We
meet
very
often
and
since
we
all
enjoy
food,
its
good
fun."
You
have
influential
friends,
ever
thought
of
asking
for
any
roles.
"One
should
never
expect
from
your
friends.
For
if
you
carry
the
baggage
of
your
worries
and
expectations,
then,
you'd
stop
having
any
friends.
I
don't
expect
any
favors
from
my
friends."
Any
plans
of
you
and
Anil
coming
together
for
a
film
produced
by
Boney?
"We
would
love
to
if
there's
a
proper
script."
And
will
you
turn
a
producer!
"I
would
want
to
produce
at
some
stage..."
Any
more
negative
roles
for
you?
"I
enjoyed
both
Qayamat
and
Koi
Mere
Dil
Se
Pooche.
Would
love
to
be
negative
again...."
Finally,
having
acted
with
stars
like
Madhuri
Dixit,
Manisha
Koirala
and
Tabu
in
hits
like
Raja
and
Chupa
Rustam,
how
does
it
feel
acting
with
a
Neha
Dhupia?
"Madhuri
was
a
big
star
when
she
agreed
to
do
a
film
with
me,
so
in
a
way,
I
am
playing
the
senior
part
when
I
act
in
a
film
starring
Neha
Dhupia."
