30 Years of Raja: Sanjay Kapoor reflects on his Bollywood journey and Madhuri Dixit’s support
Sanjay Kapoor took to Instagram to post several posters of Raja featuring himself and Madhuri Dixit. At the time, Madhuri was already a major star, and she chose to do the film with newcomer Sanjay because of her close friendship with his elder brother, Anil Kapoor.
He captioned, “30 Years of Raja, 2nd June 1995, it’s been 30 years in this beautiful film industry and I still feel there is so much more to learn and Achieve, The journey continues, Thank you for all the love, Thank you Indu and Ashok for casting me, Thank you Madhuri for making me so comfortable when I was a raw new comer.”
