After getting a taste of the Mughal dynasty with The Empire, it is time for Kunal Kapoor to return to the present day and solve the dilemmas of the heart. The actor is part of Saket Chaudhary’s short film in Ankahi Kahaniya, the Netflix anthology that examines love in all its complexities. The segment — also starring Zoya Hussain and Nikhil Dwivedi — tells the story of two married couples whose fates are intertwined. For Kapoor, the role didn’t require extensive prep as he identified with the part.
“The character is close to who I am and comes from a world similar to mine. So, there was no preparation in terms of changing the dialect or the body language,” says the actor.
