Actor Omkar Kapoor, who is making his debut as a lead actor in forthcoming film "Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2", says he wants to show the Luv Ranjan directorial to veteran actors Anil Kapoor, Sridevi and Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, with whom he has worked as a child artiste earlier.
Omkar has done films like "Mela", "Hero No 1", "Masoom", "Judaai" and "Judwaa" as a child actor.
He was seen in "Judaai" as Anil and Sridevi's son and in "Judwaa", he played younger version of Salman. He was also a part of popular song "Chotta bacha jaan ke humko". With "Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2", he's making his debut as a grown up.
"'Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2' is my first film as a lead actor and I'm extremely excited about it. I have always been passionate about acting and started my career at a very young age," Omkar said in a statement.
"I had taken a pause in the middle to complete my studies and here I'm with 'Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2', which is a very special film for me. I wish to show it to Anil sir, Sridevi ma'am, and Salman bhai.
"I am a huge admirer of them and would love to know their views and seek their blessings," he added.
