I Never Imagind I'll Work With Akshay Kumar & Sunny Deol, Says 'Blank' Actor Karan Kapadia
Dimple Kapadia's nephew Karan Kapadia is making his Bollywood debut in Blank and revealed that he's happy that his debut will star Sunny Deol and Akshay Kumar.
Veteran
actor
Dimple
Kapadia's
nephew
Karan
is
making
his
Bollywood
debut
with
"Blank" and
he
feels
overwhelmed
with
the
presence
of
two
big
stars
-
Sunny
Deol
and
Akshay
Kumar
in
the
film.
In
"Blank",
Deol
plays
the
role
of
an
ATS
chief
on
a
mission
to
neutralise
a
suicide
bomber
(Karan).
His
brother-in-law
actor
Akshay,
on
the
other
hand,
gave
his
support
through
a
special
song
in
the
film.
"When
I
signed
the
film
in
2016,
Sunny
sir
was
not
a
part
of
it
at
that
time.
It
was
a
small
film
then.
Now
it
has
become
a
big
film
due
to
Sunny
sir
and
Akshay
sir.
It
is
incredible.
I
had
never
imagined
it
this
way,"
Karan
told
PTI.
"I
am
a
first-time
actor,
Behzad
Khambata
is
a
new
director
and
you
need
someone
of
that
kind
of
experience.
It
also
helps
you
workwise.
They
have
loyal,
die-hard
fans
and
that
too
helps
in
getting
attention," he
said.
Karan's
mother,
late
actor
Simple
Kapadia,
was
also
a
costume
designer
on
some
of
Deol's
films.
"From
being
a
kid
on
his
sets,
when
he
was
at
the
peak
of
his
career,
to
now
sharing
a
frame
with
him,
it
was
all
surreal.
I
was
very
nervous
when
I
was
doing
the
first
scene
with
him.
I
can
say
that
he
elevates
the
film
to
another
level,
his
presence
just
adds
up,"
he
said.
Talking
about
the
high-energy
number
Akshay
shot
for
"Blank",
Karan
said,
the
song
was
initially
not
a
part
of
the
plan.
"He
was
really
proud
of
what
I
had
done
and
said
this
was
his
way
of
wishing
me
luck.
We
never
saw
it
coming,"
he
added.
Karan,
who
plays
the
role
of
an
antagonist
in
his
debut,
says
the
film
came
to
him
at
a
time
when
he
was
eagerly
waiting
for
an
opportunity.
"I
had
decided
that
I
will
act
in
films
when
I
was
11.
At
15,
I
started
working
towards
it.
I
dropped
out
of
a
BMM
(Bachelor
of
Mass
Media)
course.
I
had
thought
about
going
to
New
York
and
studying
acting
in
a
film
school
but
things
did
not
work
out.
I
was
asked
to
assist
on
'Boss'
(starring
Akshay).
Also,
I
went
for
auditions
but
they
are
tricky
as
you
don't
get
the
parts
you
want
to
do.
I
was
assessing
my
options
on
what
to
do
next.
I
had
even
thought
of
going
to
south
for
auditions."
He
trained
at
Barry
John
Acting
Studio
and
later
went
to
Jeff
Goldberg
Studio,
he
said.
"I
believe
one
learns
more
on
sets
and
from
experience.
I
assisted
on
films,
went
for
auditions
to
gain
as
much
knowledge
as
possible.
For
this
film,
I
had
two
years
to
prepare
and
construct
my
character
with
the
help
of
my
director."
The
newcomer
said
he
deliberately
chose
not
to
seek
help
of
his
cousin
Twinkle
Khanna
and
Akshay.
"I
have
had
a
regular
childhood.
I
have
stayed
away
from
everything.
I
never
told
my
family
to
launch
me.
I
wanted
to
do
it
on
my
own
and
I
knew
it
is
going
to
be
a
struggle.
I
did
not
get
launched,
I
got
a
break.
These
two
things
sound
similar,
but
they
are
different."
Blank
is
slated
to
be
released
on
May
3.
