Popular comedy actor revealed what happened when he tried to play hero in a film: It was that big a hit.

Veteran actor Shakti Kapoor once aspired to be a leading man, inspired by Vinod Khanna's career. His sole attempt, the 1982 film 'Zakhmee Insaan,' was a catastrophic failure, reportedly pulled from theaters within 15 minutes. This experience led Kapoor to embrace villainous and comedic roles, where he found significant success.
