Mumbai, Dec 24 (IANS) “Rang De Basanti” fame actor Kunal Kapoor’s play “Ek Punjab Yeh Bhi” will soon jet off to a tour of the US, Canada and Pakistan. The actor is happy with the appreciation, and looks forward to enthralling international audiences.

The production is expected to leave for the foreign tour in April or May next year.
“We put a lot of passion and hard work into this, and I’m really happy with how people have reacted to it. We have had number of offers to tour other cities and countries and I am really looking forward to that,” Kunal said in a statement.
Meanwhile, back on the home turf, Kunal will also start shooting for his first action movie down south soon.
Aditi Rao Hydari doesn’t mix family with work
Aditi Rao Hydari, who is filmmaker Kiran Rao’s cousin, says she would love to work with her, but the actress doesn’t like to mix family with work.
Asked if the audience will ever get to see her working under Kiran’s direction, Aditi told IANS: “I would love to work with her. She is an amazing and fearless director and very intelligent. As a person, I have always admired her, but I don’t mix family with work.”
Also asked if she’d like to work with Kiran’s husband and actor-producer Aamir Khan, the “Yeh Saali Zindagi” actress said: “I would love to, but like I said, I come from a family where you prove yourself on your own and make your own journey.”
Aditi is geared up for the release of “Wazir”. She says it was her privilege to work with megastar Amitabh Bachchan and the versatile Farhan Akhtar in the Bejoy Nambiar directorial.
“There are no words to describe when you work with people you admire the most. I was intimidated by them, but when we were in front of the camera we were fine,” she said.
