Anil Kapoor, known for his trademark moustache, has been a part of Bollywood for thirty years now. His crest of success rose highest in the eighties. He's also a producer and is the director of Asian Academy of Film and Television, Film City Noida. Kapoor was born on the 24th December 1959 in Chembur,Mumbai to Surinder and Nirmal. The former was actor Shammi Kapoor's secretary who went on to produce films. His brother is well known producer Boney Kapoor married to actress Sridevi. His younger brother Sanjay Kapoor is also an actor. His sister's husband is Sandeep Marwah of the Marwah Films and Video Studios. Kapoor as a child, a film buff that he was, got a chance to act in a Shammi Kapoor starrer Tu Payal Mein Geet, which never saw light. He studied at the Our Lady Of Perpetual Succor School and later joined Xavier College which he left mid-way as he was not inclined to attend classes. Soon he enrolled in Roshan Taneja's Acting School and has been going strong since. He married Sunitha Bhambhani in 1984 and has three children Sonam, Rhea and Harsh. His oldest daughter Sonam Kapoor made her debut with Saawariya in 2007. His wife Sunitha is a model turned jewelry designer.
