In
his
recent
tete-a-tete
with
a
leading
daily,
actor
Shakti
Kapoor
who
has
been
active
in
the
film
industry
for
more
than
five
decades,
said
that
he
feels
bad
when
only
negative
aspects
of
his
profession
get
highlighted
by
media.
He
further
added
that
he
has
only
seen
people
stand
by
and
help
on
another.
While
speaking
to
Hindustan
Times,
he
said
that
he
has
seen
the
film
industry
for
many
years
and
he
can
vouch
for
the
fact
that
this
is
the
finest
film
industry.
"Log
bahut
negative
bolte
hai
film
industry
ke
baare
mein.
There
are
people
always
standing
up
for
you.
Yeh
cheez
baahar
nahi
aati,
bas
negative
cheese
baahar
aati
hai.
But
it
is
not
like
that.
It
is
sad
that
only
negative
aspects
of
the
film
industry
gets
highlighted," asserted
Shakti
Kapoor.
Giving
example
of
his
own
journey
in
Bollywood,
he
said
that
he
always
had
good
people
around
him,
and
despite
never
having
any
godfather,
he
carved
a
niche
for
himself.
"I
did
not
have
any
dada,
chacha,
mama
to
help
me
in
Bollywood.
Early
in
my
career
I
found
Feroz
Khan
(actor)
and
became
his
favourite.
Then,
Sunil
Dutt
(actor),
trusted
my
capabilities
and
gave
me
work.
Not
only
that,
he
also
gave
me
the
name
Shakti.
My
birth
name
is
Sunil," added
Kapoor.
In
the
same
interview,
Shakti
also
praised
his
children
Siddhant
and
Shraddha
Kapoor
and
said
that
he's
proud
of
them
and
their
work.
"Shraddha
is
a
big
star,
Siddhanth
is
on
the
way
to
making
it
big.
I
am
very
proud
of
my
children.
People
praise
my
daughter
and
I
feel
so
happy.
She
has
been
working
in
these
Covid-19
times
and
even
Siddhanth
is
keeping
so
busy.
I
feel
blessed
to
have
had
this
career
and
this
personal
life,"
concluded
the
69-year-old.
