Anil Kapoor Caught By Police in Burqa.

Anil Kapoor Caught By Police in Burqa.

Anil Kapoor's utmost professionalism recently landed him in a soup or er... should we say — a burqa!

Excited about his new role in Subhash Ghai's Black And White , in which he plays a Hindu professor residing in Chandni Chowk, the actor decided to do some research on his own.

To prepare for the intense character, Anil decided to recee the location that's situated opposite the Red Fort in Delhi all by himself, just to get the feel of the bustling neighbourhood and it's people. And to avoid the public glare, Anil resorted to a time-tested formula — often used by Bollywood actresses to move in public without being mobbed — and sought the sanctuary in a burqa.
So disguised in a burqa to conceal his identity, Anil hit the narrow gullis of the ever-buzzing Chandni Chowk. He kept walking the streets, observing people till he came across a resident who found something odd and suspicious about 'this lady in black' and raised an alarm. The star gathered his pace to keep the people off his trail, but couldn't shake them off in the over-crowded bylanes.

Soon a few policemen too came to the spot. But before things could get unsavoury, Kapoor raised the veil and revealed his identity to the locals, who were baffled to see the mustachioed star behind the burqa.

Anil wasted no time in telling them that he was only doing his research by being there to play a role of a professor from their area. Ecstatic to know that a film will be shot in their locality, the locals were more than happy and of course offered to show Anil around.
