‘Look at my destiny’: Sanjay Kapoor reveals shocking aftermath of his 1999 hit Sirf Tum · indianexpress.com

Sanjay Kapoor is an actor from a famous Indian film family.

In 1999, he starred in a movie called Sirf Tum that became a very big hit.

But after the movie was successful, nobody offered him another movie.

Sanjay thinks that was strange and says it is his 'destiny.'

He says today's actors get many chances after just one hit movie.

His career got off to a hard start because his first movie, Prem, took eight years to make and did not do well.

Another movie of his, Raja, almost did not happen because people lost hope.

The director, Indra Kumar, rewrote and reshot the whole movie to make it better.

He says famous stars like Madhuri Dixit and Saroj Khan helped save the film.

Sanjay also says Sirf Tum is special because the hero and heroine only meet at the very end.
