Annu Kapoor: Some actors think commanding huge fees makes success their slave

Veteran actor Annu Kapoor discusses headlining Uttar Da Puttar, directed by Ravinder Siwach and produced by Sandiip Kapoor, a film that explores the conflict between science and blind faith through a physics professor obsessed with the occult. He reflects on why experience never eliminates pre-release nerves, dismisses the idea of competing with younger stars beyond acting, and shares his philosophy on filmmaking. Kapoor also speaks about the importance of respecting directors, warning against actors who equate high fees with success and stressing that healthy collaboration, humility and meaningful conversations on set are far more valuable than ego or stardom.
