  • Rishi Kapoor Wants To Do Meaty Negative Roles
Veteran actor Rishi Kapoor says he wants to do negative roles, but only with substantial content.
 
The 64-year-old star shared his views on exploring the genre on Twitter when a fan asked him when he will essay a grey character onscreen again. 
 
"Must get a meaty role which I can get my teeth into. Actor cannot go beyond a well written character in the script," Rishi tweeted on Monday night. 
 
He was lauded for portraying negative roles in films like "Agneepath" and "D-Day".
 
Rishi was last seen on the silver screen in "Kapoor & Sons", which also featured Alia Bhatt, Sidharth Malhotra and Fawad Khan. He effortlessly essayed the character of a nonagenarian in the film.
