I am reluctant and anxious about every role, declares Anil Kapoor

During the promotions of his upcoming streaming series The Night Manager Part 2, Anil Kapoor said that he harnesses his negative feelings, such as reluctance, nervousness and anxiety, and makes something good come out of them.

Kapoor had earlier said that he was reluctant to play Shelly Rungta (his character in The Night Manager). Talking about the same he said, "I am reluctant for each and every role; it was not that I was reluctant only for my role in The Night Manager. I am always overcome by this anxiety and nervousness about whether I will be able to do the role or not, and I use that energy to perform better."

The senior actor continued, "I seriously don't know how to do a role with over-confidence. Somehow, these little things help me do my role exactly the way my director wants me to do it. I draw energy from my reluctance and anxiety."

The Night Manager is a Hindi remake of the BBC television series based on John Le Carre's novel of the same name.

The series, which will start streaming on Disney+ Hotstar, also has Sobhita Dhulipala, Tillotama Shome, Ravi Behl and Saswata Chatterjee in supporting roles.
