In Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies, Khushi Kapoor will make her big Bollywood debut with Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter Suhana Khan and Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson Agastya Nanda. Mihir Ahuja, Dot, Yuvraj Menda, and Vedang Raina are among the cast members. The film’s first look and teaser were published on May 14, and the response has been overwhelmingly positive. It will premiere on Netflix in 2023 and is based on the popular Archie comics.
In a recent interview with ETimes, Boney Kapoor shared his delight at his daughter Khushi’s upcoming film debut. He also revealed that Janhvi Kapoor was instrumental in her younger sister’s debut. Boney said that Khushi had expressed her desire to become an actor after Janhvi began shooting for her debut film, Dhadak in 2018. Later, as a part to prepare herself for the acting profession, Khushi was sent to New York Film School in 2019.
When asked if Khushi always wanted to be an actor and follow in the footsteps of her late mother, Sridevi. He said that children don’t come out with their ambitions from the beginning. He said that when the kids cross the age of 19-20, they think to make a firm decision. “Who doesn’t like glamour? Who doesn’t like getting attention? Everyone in the world likes it whether it is in the entertainment field, academic field, or sports world,” said Boney.
He also stated that The Archies is the ideal debut project for Khushi. He described the picture as a “dream project,” saying that it has the advantage of bringing older people on a nostalgia trip because everyone has been a great fan of Archie. “It’s a double whammy,” Boney remarked. In any event, the youngsters will delight in The Archies’ iconic universe.”
Boney also added that if Sridevi was around, she would have supported Khushi like she did Janhvi. He also stated that he has always encouraged his four children (Khushi, Janhvi, Arjun, and Anshula) to pursue their dreams. “First and foremost, I am a friend, then a father.” I am now both a father and a mother. I’m doing my best, and I hope to keep it up so that I can get along with all of my kids. We’re getting along great today. I won’t be able to replace their mother, but I will do my best.
