The film was a game-changer not just for global cinema but for the careers of so many involved in it. Kapoor, in particular, got a lot of attention for his role as the charismatic, slightly ruthless game show host Prem Kumar. His performance remains one of the film’s standout moments, and it’s clear that the film’s lasting success has continued to positively influence his career in ways that go beyond just recognition, as he mentions with the “cherished relationships” and “financially enriching” opportunities.

The film’s impact was global, sweeping across cultures and earning acclaim for its storytelling and portrayal of life in Mumbai’s slums. Directed by Danny Boyle, it also had a brilliant team of producers and writers who ensured that the story transcended its origins to touch hearts everywhere.

As Anil Kapoor notes, the opportunities it brought him—especially in terms of collaboration with creative minds like Boyle, Paul Smith, and Christian Colson—are truly special. It’s also a testament to the enduring legacy of the film and how it continues to resonate even after all these years.

On his upcoming film Subedaar, Kapoor seems to be keeping the momentum going, continuing to diversify his roles and challenge himself as an actor. With such a prolific career, it’s clear he’s just as committed to his craft as ever.
