Bangla Press Desk: Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor has brought back the familiar outfit he wore in the 1987 film Mr India, nearly four decades after its release. He has carefully preserved the original shirt, trousers and jacket from the movie.
The actor recently appeared in the iconic outfit on a television show, taking fans on a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
Kapoor wore the outfit on India’s Top 1%: The Anil Kapoor Show. He revealed that the shirt, trousers and jacket still fit him perfectly after 39 years.
Joking about the remarkable fit, he said, “The shirt still fits me, the trousers fit, and the jacket fits too. Everything still fits after 39 years!”
Kapoor said the show’s organisers had expressed a desire to bring back the original Mr India costume. He told them that he had preserved the outfit all these years.
The jacket was one of the most distinctive elements of Kapoor’s iconic look in the film. After all these years, the actor also shared the story behind its purchase.
He revealed that he had bought the jacket from Mumbai’s Chor Bazaar.
Kapoor has also retained the spirit of his old look through his hairstyle. He said he had grown his hair long, just as he had done for Mr India, complementing the outfit with a similar hairstyle.
A special episode of the show highlighted people who work selflessly for their country and society.
Reflecting on the film’s message, Kapoor said, “What is there to learn from this film? Everyone can be Mr India.”
According to the actor, people who serve the country without expecting awards or recognition can each be considered a ‘Mr India’. They continue to work for others out of a sense of duty and responsibility.
