Anupam Kher Declares Himself and Boman Irani ‘Handsome,’ No Debate Allowed
MUMBAI, India — Veteran actor Anupam Kher shared a lighthearted moment with Boman Irani from New Delhi airport, posting photos of the two posing together and riding an escalator at Terminal 3. Clearly in a playful mood, Kher captioned the post, “We are HANDSOME! No Buts or Ifs. Jai Ho!”
The fun pit stop comes as Kher and Irani, along with Ranvir Shorey, are currently shooting the sequel to the cult 2006 comedy “Khosla Ka Ghosla!”, directed by Dibakar Banerjee. The original film followed a middle-class Delhi family’s battle to reclaim their land from a ruthless builder.
Earlier this year, Kher reflected on his long journey as he began shooting his 550th film, “Khosla Ka Ghosla 2.” Looking back on arriving in Mumbai in 1981 with big dreams, the actor said his optimism, hard work, and refusal to give up have carried him this far — and insisted he’s only at the “interval” of his career, with plenty more still to come.
