Ace actor Anil Kapoor has starred in over a hundred movies, some of which, he lately revealed, he did simply for the money. Any regrets? No. Among the most popular veteran stars of the industry who seems to be aging in reverse, Anil faced tough times in the 90s, when he signed movies just for the money.

“I did,” he said. “In fact, I can even name them. 'Andaz' and 'Heer Ranjha'. After 'Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja', the family was in a crisis and each one of us did what we had to do for survival, out of a sense of responsibility. I have no qualms about admitting that. 'Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja' released in 1993 after a long delay. The film was a massive flop at the box office.”

Anil added, “My family and I are fortunate that those times are behind us and our circumstances since then have not been as tough. But if our luck takes a turn and we ever face bad times again, I will not think twice about doing whatever it takes to take care of my family.” On the work front, Anil will soon be seen in 'Jug Jug Jeeyo' with Neetu Singh, Varun Dhawan and Kiara Advani. He also has Karan Johar's 'Takht' in the making in which he will play Shah Jahan.
