Pankaj Kapur loves Aamir Khan And ´Munnabhai´ movies!
- Abid           Let us know what you think about this story

One of the most brilliant actor of the 80’s, Pankaj Kapur, who never got his due (despite some stellar performances), unlike the two other brilliant actors from that era, Naseeruddin Shah and Om Puri, is back in a big way.

The credit for bringing back Pankaj Kapur from oblivion should go to two directors in particular. Anubhav Sinha for giving Pankaj a commercially successful movie, 'Dus' and Vishal Bhardwaj for the critically acclaimed, 'Maqbool' and 'The Blue Umbrella'.

Given the high standards that Pankaj Kapur sets with his performances, one wonders as to what kind of movies Pankaj likes. Well, the answer is not very difficult to comprehend. The list predominantly consists of Aamir Khan’s post 2000 movies, like 'Lagaan', 'Rang De Basanti', 'Dil Chahta Hai' and the recent blockbuster, 'Taare Zameen Par'. He also liked his own film, 'Dharm', loved the 'Munnabhai' series and 'Hera Pheri'.

Well, it is definitely an interesting and an impressive list and given Pankaj Kapur’s acting caliber and taste we are not surprised with his choice of films, either.
