Bright future for Sikander?

Though Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey has not been able to set the cash registers ringing at the box office, Sikander Kher has received good reviews for his performance.

One person who is immensely satisfied with his performance is his dad, Anupam Kher. The veteran actor says, “I don't look at Sikander's performance as an indulgent dad; I evaluate it as an outsider. I think it is a relevant film and Sikander is fantastic in it. He has stuck to his character; not even in a single frame did I feel he was different from what he was portraying. He has a great future as an actor.”

Anupam believes, “Today, the future depends on actors and not necessarily on stars. Actors will always remain because we are making films which require acting.” He adds, “So I am sure he will get good work and opportunities to project himself.”

A comeback

Though Neelima Azeem's directorial venture, which may or may not star her son Shahid Kapur, might take time to materialise, she is definitely going to appear in front of the camera soon. She will be seen in Shuja Ali's film,

Neelima, who made an impact with films such as Mahesh Bhatt's Sadak , says, “This is my comeback film. After 7 years, I am starting to work again. The reason for doing this film is it is very relevant in today's times. I play a mother to a son who is affected by terrorism. My character requires me to emote through my eyes.”
