Anil Kapoor recently addressed his absence from the much-anticipated Dhamaal 4 during promotional events for his upcoming film, Subedaar. Sharing a light-hearted moment, he joked about not being included in the comedy franchise’s latest installment, which reunites original cast members such as Ajay Devgn and Arshad Warsi.
While discussing his relationships with directors, Anil emphasized his fondness for long-standing collaborations with industry veterans like N. Chandra and Subhash Ghai. His connections were evident as he showcased his playful interactions, often recounting humorous exchanges that occur while discussing new projects.
In a comedic vein, Anil recreated a mock dialogue with Dhamaal 4 director Indra Kumar. His jesting remark, questioning his exclusion from the cast, humorously noted, “Hey Indu! What happened? In your film Dhamaal 4, you didn’t take me in the film? It’s okay, no problem. Did Ajay refuse?” This playful banter resonated well with the audience, reflecting his signature sense of humor.
Dhamaal 4 not only brings back familiar faces like Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, and Arshad Warsi but also introduces several new actors, including Esha Gupta and Sanjeeda Shaikh. Directed by Indra Kumar and supported by a robust production team, the film is generating considerable excitement ahead of its release.
Turning to Anil Kapoor’s forthcoming project, Subedaar is set to be released on Prime Video on March 5, 2026. This action drama features Anil in the role of Subedaar Arjun Maurya, a retired soldier maneuvering through the complexities of life post-service. The film addresses challenges such as crime and corruption within the backdrop of rural India, with Radhika Madan portraying his daughter alongside a notable ensemble cast.
As Anil Kapoor engages with his audience, his humor and charm continue to shine, proving that even amidst changes in the film industry, he remains a beloved figure in Bollywood.
