Boney Kapoor reveals Jeetendra, Shashi Kapoor visited Mr India sets ‘to witness madness’ of crew, but left impressed

On Thursday afternoon, filmmaker Boney Kapoor took to social media to share some throwback pictures from the sets of his 1987 production Mr India. Daughter Janhvi Kapoor was quick to send some love for a younger Boney on the pictures.

In one of the pictures, film director Shekhar Kapur can be seen interacting with actor Jeetendra with Boney standing in the background. In the second pic, Boney is seated and speaking to veteran actor and director Shashi Kapoor.

While captioning the post, Boney revealed how Shashi Kapoor and Jitendra had come to the sets to ‘witness the madness’ but instead went back impressed. He wrote, “Some esteemed guests who came to witness the madness of the crew on the sets of Mr India but went back appreciating the passion of every crew member. The film was shot for over 300 days & all the special effects were done live in Camera nothing was left for post, as the existing special effects studios/setups were outdated & their outputs/jobs were quite tacky.”

Boney’s nostalgic pics received appreciation from fans, the chief of them being daughter Janhvi Kapoor. Dropping a slew of heart emojis, Janhvi commented, “Looking good papa.” Other fans were equally generous in their praise. “Handsome dudes x,” commented one. Another pointed out how all the four men in the two pictures were Kapoors and commented, “Kapoor hi Kapoor!”
