Anil’s Burqa Act

Anil Kapoor is known to be a perfectionist. Long before the Aamir Khans and Hrithik Roshans appeared on the scene, this actor had made a name for himself where meticulous attention to details was concerned. Perhaps, one of the many reasons behind his long innings in the industry.

During the shooting of his film Black & White recently, the actor decided to do some research on his character in the film. His character in the film, that of a professor, is supposed to be a resident of Delhi’s Chandni Chowk area. Hence the actor decided to visit the area incognito and study the body language and dialect of the people living in this area. But even Anil knew that it was not possible for him to go as himself. So he did the next best thing, he decided to wear a burqa and enter the area.  Incidentally, the burqa has been one of the perennial favourites of our stars when they want to hang around incognito. Anyway, it was a sight to see a man as big as Anil dressed in a black burqua. He would probably have pulled off this feat if it were not for his footwear. The actor had forgotten to change his sports shoes. Suddenly word spread out that the actor was in the area and a mob surrounded him. Thankfully for him, he managed to make his out of the place unharmed.
