Did you know THIS Shah Rukh, Aamir Khan, Ranbir Kapoor's costar used to sell fruits now owns company worth Rs 110 crore?
In Bollywood, we have seen outsiders like Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar and Shah Rukh Khan doing small jobs before making it big in Bollywood. Well, there is one more actor, who used to sell fruits at the age of 18 before sharing screen space with superstars like Ranbir Kapoor, Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan in massive box office blockbusters.
The actor also owns a company worth Rs 110 crore as he is the man behind the leading crowd-funding platform Ketto. He founded the firm in 2012, along with business partners Zaheer Adenwala and Varun Sheth.
Talking to Midday, the actor said, “I don’t think that’s the right word (choosy actor) but I’ve been carrying that tag for so long now (laughs). It’s really simple. To me, what matters is if I’m into a film, I shouldn’t wake up and ask myself, “Dude, why are you doing this film?” I want to eat, sleep, breathe on a set. If I had to work just for work’s sake, I should have continued doing what I did before the movies: exporting mangoes to Hong Kong.”
The handsome hunk added, “Seriously. I was about 18 when I was doing that job but it was thankfully short-lived because all I ever dreamed of was being in the movies. Though with the current dollar rupee rate, exporting mangoes would be rather profitable.”
For the unversed, the actor has worked in films like Rang De Basanti, Bachna Ae Haseeno, Don 2, Aaja Nachle, Gold, Meenaxi: A Tale of Three Cities and others. Kunal has a special connection with Amitabh Bachchan. Big B’s brother Ajitabh Bachchan has three daughters, Nilima, Namrata, and Naina Bachchan and Kunal is married to Naina. And hence, the Dear Zindagi actor is Amitabh Bachchan’s son-in-law.
