Known for his role in 'Bheja Fry,' Bollywood actor Rajat Kapoor will be soon seen as Kalki Koechlin's father in his upcoming movie 'Mantra.'

When asked how he felt after working with the 31-year-old actress, Rajat told ANI that they have been friends for the last seven to eight years and Kalki has even acted in his play, but this is the first film where the two have substantial kinds of each other, so it was good to work with a friend.

The 54-year-old actor, who believes that his mantra for life is to stay positive and never let anything pull you down, revealed that he plays a character named Kapil Kapoor in the flick that is set in the era of 2003-2004.

Talking about his future directorial plans, the 'Drishyam' star said he has got three scripts that need funding and added that one of them might go on the floor next year.
