PANKAJ KAPUR :A SUBSTANTIAL ACTOR
ARVIND K. PANDEY
The people like Pankuj Kapur love to remain in the news for right reasons .Thanks for throwing light on the hidden facets of this fascinating and highly-talented actor . It's ironical that Bollywood has never been kind to tremendous potential of actors who don't fit in its stereotypical mould .The actors like Pankuj Kapur , who love to experiment with newer methods , being on road less-travelled , often get marginalised in glamorous world of Bolywood. The fate of such unique artists is to remain unsung with financial problems crippling their domestic lives . One still remembers impeccable performances of Pankuj Kapur in Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron , Roja , Karamchand and Ek Ruka Hua Faisala ,to name a few . All those who had seen him in Ek Doctor Ki Maut would find it impossible to dilute the charm of this man . One hopes he continues to delight his viewers with unparallel and breath-taking performances . Lastly , I feel that writer should have discussed the contributions of his better half Supriya Pathak, a brilliant actor , which enabled Kapur to provide a qualitative extension to his histronics.
