During the 25th anniversary celebration of the film 'Taal' in Mumbai, Anil Kapoor candidly shared his anxiety before shooting a pivotal climax scene where his character, Vikrant, encourages Aishwarya Rai's character, Mansi, to be with Akshaye Khanna's character, Manav. Kapoor expressed that the last-minute delivery of lines by director Subhash Ghai contributed to his stress, leading him to contemplate not attending the shoot. To alleviate his nerves, he called actress Padmini Kolhapure for Reiki, a Japanese energy healing practice, which she performed to help calm him down. Kapoor humorously recalled calling Ghai the night before to express his reluctance to come to set, to which Ghai replied he would wait for him. The film is set for a re-release on September 27, allowing audiences to relive its magic. Kapoor's emotional revelation highlights the pressures even seasoned actors face in their craft.
