Anupam Kher recalls going bankrupt in 2004, suffering from facial paralysis

-

Kuch bhi ho sakta hai — this is the mantra that Anupam Kher swears by. In a recent interview, the actor took a walk down memory lane to recall the instances where this thought held true. From health scares to financial crises, the actor, who’s been through it all, spoke about overcoming all that came his way.

“I got facial paralysis before a major scene in Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! (1994) and the doctor had asked me to stay at home for two months and cancel the shooting. I went to the sets and finished the shooting the same day,” he revealed.

Kher went on to reveal that in 2004, he almost went bankrupt “because I am not a business-minded person”.

The 67-year-old explained, “I am a sum total of my failures. People started calling me thespian, veteran and legend — which meant you should be given a lifetime achievemen­t award and walk into the sunset. But, I refused to do that. I went abroad and did an American series. After turning 60, people think about retirement, but I started building my body.”
