MC Mary Kom unveiled the posters of Shiv Shastri Balboa, an inspirational film of a common man with uncommon adventures starring Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta, Jugal Hansraj, Nargis Fakhri, Sharib Hashmi at Actor Prepares.
Anupam Kher and
Mary Kom, both ardent admirers of each other, spoke of acting and boxing. Mary
Kom taught Kher a few moves that he religiously learnt and even sparred with
Mary Kom in a mock match with a friendly ring!
Anupam Kher said,
"I wanted the poster to be released by a national icon associated with
sport, especially boxing. Mary Kom is so real and so warm-hearted. She was
generous with her praise. She loves the fast game and hates ad film retakes.
And admits that with ease. She is the pride of India."
Kher, who was visibly
humbled by Mary Kom's simplicity of personal and her uninhibited laughter said.
"Those who laugh aloud and always good-hearted. I always admired Mary Kom,
but I am simply overwhelmed by her humility today. She is a true
champion."
He added,
"Shiv Shastri Balboa is a wacky film, the story of two strangers who meet
in America and how their life takes a new turn.
It is funny, wacky,
it is crazy, its inspirational. His pug that he fondly calls Capsule has his
opinion on almost everything, and it is communicated to the audience in
blurbs."
Elaborates Kher,
"Neena ji is a fine actress and a person. Plus, we have Sharib Hashmi in
an amazing role, Jugal Hansraj is back after a long time and we have Nargis
Fakhri in a beautiful role. Ajayan Vengopalan is our director, and he has
helmed Metro Park Series before."
