After having worked in the film industry for more than four decades, actor Gulshan Grover is now looking forward to the debut of his son, Sanjay Grover, whose first film as a producer will release soon.

As the young Grover gears up for the big project, what’s the one advice the veteran actor would give him? “Do whatever fascinates you, but with tremendous amount of sincerity. That’s what I have told him. Rest, he is doing everything well. For his first film, he has managed to get a director like Tarsem Singh on board. That is huge,” Gulshan says.

To his credit, Singh has projects such as The Cell (2000) and Mirror Mirror (2012), and has worked with the likes of actor Brad Pitt and singer-songwriters Lady Gaga and Enrique Iglesias. “Sanjay has known him (Singh) for many years. He brought him to India to shoot the project. Many of my industry friends, including Anil Kapoor and Jackie Shroff (actors), have congratulated him for that. In fact, Chunky Panday (actor) went on to say that this is the biggest Hollywood-Bollywood collaboration ever!” says Gulshan, beaming with pride.

Ask if we can expect to see him in one of Sanjay’s projects soon, and he says, “He’s helped me a lot in building Hollywood connections. But, he has not thought of casting me in his projects yet (laughs).”
