Trailer launch of The Final Exit; Kunal Roy Kapur actor not comedian

During the trailer launch event of ‘The Final Exit’ , Kunal Roy Kapur said he wanted to be remembered as an actor and not as a comedian.

Kapur was asked if this change in avatar and genre is intentional, “Absolutely I think you don’t want to be known for only one role in your life, I don’t want to be known as a comic, I want to be known as an actor who can do comedy, drama, thrillers, and I will be making the effort that is needed on my part to make that transformation may it be physical or mental. And this film is one of my efforts to break out of the comedy image.”

He further adds, “Family is very excited for my new look, my wife and my kids are excited to see this new person in front of them. It makes me think I should maintain this image and move forward. People are used to seeing me in comedy avatars, now this is going to be a surprise to people. Casting me in a serious role was a big challenge and I welcome challenges. As an actor to break out of the comedy mold is something refreshing and challenges which is why I took the opportunity with open hands.”
