Veteran Bollywood actor Anupam Kher has celebrated 40 years in the film industry. Currently, he is enjoying the success of his latest movie, Vijay 69. Reflecting on his early struggles, Kher shared memories of the places that played a significant role in shaping his career. Through his Instagram account, he posted a series of photos linked to his first job and the residence he had during his debut film, Saaransh.
Kher expressed, "Life is a sum total of struggles, memories, and nostalgia.....Thank you for the love you've shown for #Vijay69, now streaming on Netflix. This appreciation moved me to revisit some places that have shaped me into who I am today."
*Casa Maria, Bandra*
Casa Maria on St Paul's Road was my third home in the city. This was during the filming of Saaransh (my debut film in 1984), and I resided on the first floor.
The first place I worked at when I arrived in Mumbai on June 3rd, 1981, for a job at an acting school. Upon arrival, I found there was no building or acting school; classes were conducted on the beach!
Kher is an alumnus of the prestigious Prithvi Theatre in Juhu.
Prithvi Theatre, Juhu: I began my journey at Prithvi when I landed in Mumbai on June 3rd, 1981. This is where Satish Kaushik's play Us Par Ka Nazara, an adaptation of Arthur Miller's play A View from the Bridge, was staged.
The Vijay 69 actor also shared a picture of his first 1-BHK flat, which he purchased at Kalumal Estate in Juhu.
