\"AnilAnil Kapoor was recently seen in Subedar, directed by Suresh Triveni. (PTI)Anil Kapoor was offered role in Dhurandhar 2, he rejected it<\/p>\n

Anil shared details on how things unfolded. \u201cYes, Aditya came to me for Dhurandhar 2. He wanted me to do a small cameo in the film. But the reason I am what I am today is because of my professionalism and my commitment. That\u2019s very important–only talent cannot make you what you are. At that time, I had already committed those dates to another filmmaker. I told Aditya, \u2018I would have loved to do this cameo, but I\u2019m already committed.\u2019 He is releasing the film now, and it\u2019s a fantastic film. It\u2019s my loss, but it\u2019s okay.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anil talks about working with Aditya Dhar in the future<\/p>\n

The actor talked about working with Aditya in the future. \u201cAt least I know in the back of my mind that it can happen to him as well \u2014 there could be another filmmaker who has just delivered a big blockbuster and offers me something when I\u2019m already committed to Aditya. If I then go and do that film and cancel his dates, that would be completely unprofessional. So yes, he did offer me the role, and hopefully we will work together in the future,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
