New Delhi: Veer Pahariya's spectacular performance in Sky Force, his debut in Bollywood, with Akshay Kumar, has been receiving a lot of acclaim. Veer just recounted a touching anecdote from a special screening that affected him—and it involves legendary producer Boney Kapoor.
Boney Kapoor's Emotional Reaction
Veer recounted Boney Kapoor's moving response to the film's intense conclusion in an exclusive interview with India Today. "Boney sir was in tears," he revealed. Boney said that even though he had seen the movie, he hadn't anticipated it having such a strong effect. Veer continued: "He was so touched that he felt like he was somewhere else in that moment."
Veer pointed out that it wasn’t just their personal connection, but also the film's content and execution, that prompted Boney's response. "He didn’t watch the film just because I was part of it. He truly appreciated its storytelling and execution," Veer explained.
Veer was very moved by the emotional response of this renowned film star. The fact that it came from a producer with such an impressive history in the field speaks volumes about the significance of his efforts.
Additionally, Veer said that his family had doubts about his intention to become an actor, seeing it as an impulsive and maybe fleeting passion of his. But Veer was hell-bent on proving them wrong. As his self-assurance grew, he ventured out on his own to launch a YouTube account, play festivals and act in music videos.
