Surinder Kapoor, father of Anil, Boney, and Sanjay Kapoor, passed away in September 2011 at the age of 85 following a cardiac arrest. He began his career in the film industry as a secretary to Geeta Bali, a popular actress from the 1950s and the wife of his nephew, Shammi Kapoor.
His first major success as a producer came with the 1963 Hindi film Shehzada. However, his later films like Phool Khile Hain Gulshan Gulshan and Bikash Rao didn’t perform well at the box office.
In the 1980s, he went on to produce several notable films such as Hum Paanch, Woh Saat Din, Loafer, Judaai, Sirf Tum, Hamara Dil Aapke Paas Hai, and Pukar.
Meanwhile, Anil Kapoor recently wrapped up a schedule for his upcoming film Subedaar, sharing his excitement on Instagram about the journey ahead. Directed by Suresh Triveni, the action drama will release on Amazon Prime Video. Kapoor is also set to feature in upcoming YRF Spy Universe films, including War 2 and Alpha.
