Rajat Kapoor

Leading actor of stage and screen Rajat Kapoor (Mira Nair's Monsoon Wedding, Deepa Mehta's Midnight's Children and a host of mainstream and independent Indian films) has also proved himself to be an adept script-writer and director of films in which he also plays a key role. Rajat Kapoor's notable films include the 2003 National Award winner Raghu Romeo, Mixed Doubles (2005), Mithya (2007) and Fatso (2009). Kapoor says, "This film has been with me for a long time. It is about my childhood, the alternate warmth and heat of growing up in a joint family. It is also a film about changing seasons, web of relationships. Then I found the peg to hang it on. A man who is willing to stake everything for his belief. He is both a mad man and a messiah; a fool and a guru."
