Anil Kapoor shares how his Bollywood journey has been a learning experience for him

With Malang, Bollywood actor, Anil Kapoor had returned to the genre of action flicks. At the age of 63 and after 40 years of being in the industry, he still seems to be going strong. In an interview with a daily portal, Anil Kapoor opened up about his comeback in the action genre. 

In the interview, Anil Kapoor reportedly said that it had been five years since he turned towards action flicks again. It started with him starring the Hindi remake of the Hollywood series 24. In this 2016 production, Anil Kapoor had played an anti-terrorist agent who is tasked with stopping a criminal from manipulating the government into releasing his brother.

Anil Kapoor reportedly continued in the interview that despite working in action films now, the kind of action he had to do in Malang was very different. The movie did not have too much of real action or stunts. There were reportedly a few gun scenes and a handful of hand-to-hand combat.
