Rishi Kapoor's second coming

With 8 releases slated in the next two years, the senior Kapoor is on a roll






Admitting that he has never been busier, Kapoor says, "My next release is Hema Malini's Tell Me Oh Khuda. Then comes Agneepath, Housefull2 and Student Of The Year. I don't think I have ever handled so many films simultaneously."

Strangely, Kapoor says he had initially turned down the role of the don in Agneepath. "I felt I couldn't carry it off. But both, Karan Malhotra (director) and Karan Johar (producer) insisted I take it up."

Apparently, Kapoor was so afraid he'd be a failure in the role, he even asked that a 'look' test be conducted. "I did a 'look' test for the first time in my career.

They (Malhotra and Johar) said it was not required, but I insisted. I was worried if the role did not work out well, I'd be held responsible for not being convincing enough."
