Harshvardhan Kapoor on creating his own identity

Bollywood newcomer, Harshvardhan Kapoor is keen to create his own identity in the film industry, even though his father Anil Kapoor and sister, Sonam Kapoor are established actors.

The actor, who makes his debut with ‘Mirzya’ next month, told Filmfare, ���I was blown away by the complex, romantic and poetic script of Mirzya, which is also a musical. I realised that I was getting a chance to be a part of something so poetic and beautiful, and it suits my personality. It�۪s very rare to find scripts that are poetic and romantic. When I was 22, I was reading so many other scripts but I feel this is the most contemporary romantic script ever.”

Despite being Anil Kapoor’s son, Harshvardhan has a different take on his role in Bollywood, ���It depends on how things go. There are pros and cons. I don�۪t see it as a burden. I want to do new kind of films. I want to create my own identity. I don�۪t look at it at that way. I look at myself and the films that I will be doing and that films will create my identity.�۝

‘Mirzya’ releases next month.
