“Lucky to see him perform one last time”: Anil Kapoor gets emotional after seeing Satish Kaushik’s ‘Kaagaz 2’ trailer


In a moving homage to the legacy of his recently departed friend, veteran Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor shared an emotional message alongside the trailer release of Satish Kaushik’s final film, ‘Kaagaz 2’. The esteemed actor took to his Instagram to post the trailer, along with a poignant caption that expressed his sentiments: “This film is extra special…my very dear friend’s last film…I feel lucky to see him perform one last time…Yeh sirf mudda nahi, yeh har aadmi ke emotions hai….#Kaagaz2Trailer Out Now!”

In quick succession to this heartfelt share, the film’s engaging and hard-hitting trailer was revealed to the public, rousing interest and emotions alike. Anupam Kher, a prominent figure in Indian cinema and close associate of Satish Kaushik, also took to Instagram to share the trailer, penning a message that acknowledged the depth of Kaushik’s passion for this film: “Presenting the trailer of my friend #SatishKaushik’s passion project #Kaagaz2! Yeh sirf mudda nahi, yeh har aadmi ke emotions hai…. #Kaagaz2Trailer Out Now! #Kaagaz2 Releasing in cinemas on 1st Mar!”

The touching trailer unfolds the storyline of Satish’s character, a father embroiled in the pursuit of justice for his deceased daughter and advocating for the prohibition of political rallies, which tragically claimed her life. Anant Desai’s portrayal of the influential politician responsible for the rally becomes the focal antagonist in this narrative. In parallel, Anupam Kher, as the determined advocate, shoulders the onus of the legal battle, confronting life-threatening barriers in the process. ‘Kaagaz 2’ aims to cast a spotlight on the tribulations of the ordinary individual who is beleaguered by the unforeseen repercussions of protests and political action.

On Thursday, precursor to the trailer’s release, Anupam Kher expressed his heartfelt respect for Kaushik by unveiling the first look poster and sharing a note that projected both affection and vow to fulfill Kaushik’s vision, “Dearest #SATISHKAUSHIK! The trailer of your passion project and unfortunately the last project #Kaagaz2 is releasing tomorrow! I know how hard you worked to create this film. But we all will make sure that the brilliance of this film reaches the world! Love you always!”

The film is a brainchild of a collaborative production between Satish Kaushik Entertainment LLP and Venus Worldwide Entertainment Pvt Ltd, helmed by producers Shashi Satish Kaushik, Ratan Jain, and Ganesh Jain. The movie is slated for theatrical release on March 1.

Notably, Anil Kapoor has also been reveling in the success of Siddharth Anand’s high-octane aerial action flick ‘Fighter’, which features an ensemble cast including Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, Karan Singh Grover, and Akshay Oberoi. Embodying different aviators in the film, the actors have found favor amongst audiences, with Kapoor, Roshan, and Padukone being lauded for their chemistry and performances. Particularly noteworthy is the collaboration of Roshan and Padukone, marking their first joint venture on-screen. Launched into theaters on January 25th, ‘Fighter’ has continued to gain traction at the box office.
