Veteran actor Anupam Kher has expressed his happiness and gratitude as he began shooting for his upcoming film Khosla Ka Ghosla 2, which marks the 550th project in his career.

He reflected on his challenging, yet fulfilling journey while sharing a remark made by an International director during the Cannes Film Festival last year. "So You are the Marathon man of Indian Cinema!!" said an International Director at the Cannes Film Festival last year when I told him the number of films I have acted in," he recalled.

He reminisced the day when he first arrived in Mumbai with many dreams for his life and career. He took his Instagram handle, saying, "So today as I start my 550th film Khosla Ka Ghosla 2, my heart is filled with gratitude and thankfulness! When I landed in Mumbai, the city of dreams on the 3rd June 1981 never had I dreamt that I will reach this LANDMARK of 550 films," he said, calling this pivotal moment an "interval point" in his life.

"Here I am in Delhi ready to give my first shot for KKG2. Just FYI I genuinely feel I have so much to give, so much to do! I have reached only the ‘interval point’ of my life and my career! Dreams have no expiry date," he added, underlining that his optimism and attitude to never give up and hard work were the qualities that made him reach where he is now.

However, Kher also credited his directors, producers, and the audience for his long stay in the industry. "But my survival for all these years has only been possible because of the support I got from all my producers, directors, co-actors, technicians and above all YOU, my audiences! Without your support reaching this landmark would never have been possible! So a big heartfelt," he shared.

Khosla Ka Ghosla 2 is a sequel to 2006 film of the same name helmed by Dibakar Banerjee. The upcoming film, directed by Umesh Bisht, also stars Boman Irani in a key role.
