I like this piece of news. I thought he was the best actor in “Slumdog” BY FAR.
I wonder if he will last past the first hour, middle east peace keepers never last long…
This sounds pretty good. THey say he’s a series regular, so I’m assuming he’ll play a big part in the show. Sounds good.
YESSSS
Smart move!
Love this!! Is there any chance Behrooz will reappear??
AWESOME!!!!
He is the greatest actor of bollywod.
yes,,,Anil Kapoor is the greatest actor of Bollywwod, even my personal view he is better tha Big B amitabh…he is far better than any present time hero’s…good.
