Actor Anil Kapoor who recently appeared on Arbaaz Khan’s talk show Pinch, reacted to fans who said that he ‘lives with his plastic surgeon’ and ‘drinks snake blood’ to stay young.
He was the latest guest to feature on the show, in which Arbaaz Khan reads mean tweets and comments to celebrities to their face, and asks them to react. Anil had to face comments that described him and his daughter Sonam Kapoor as ‘shameless’ and made fun of his appearance.
In one segment, Anil was showed video recordings of people commenting on his looks. “I think he lives with his plastic surgeon,” one person said. “I think he drinks snake blood,” another person said.
Anil reacted, “Yeh genuine hai ke aap logon ne paise de ke (Is this genuine or did you people pay them to say this)…” Arbaaz assured him that these were genuine comments.
Anil said with a laugh, “Ek ne kaha ke main plastic surgeon saath leke ghoomta hu (One person said that I keep a plastic surgeon with me).”
Anil then admitted how privileged he has been in life – personally, professionally and financially – and that he owes it to himself and his fans to take care of himself. He said, “I’ve received so much, it helps in the way you look. Everybody goes through ups and downs, but I’ve been fortunate. I have been blessed. I feel that one has 24 hours in a day, if you can’t take care of yourself for even one hour in a day then what’s the point.”
