Vijay 69 is a Tribute to My Mother Dulari: Anupam Kher

MUMBAI: The trailer of Netflix and YRF Entertainment’s Vijay 69 which dropped yesterday, received a lot of love from all quarters. The acting legend Anupam Kher, known for his versatile roles and powerful performances, shares how deeply personal his latest project, Vijay 69, is to him. The film, which tells the inspiring story of a 69-year-old man who dares to dream and achieve the unthinkable, has resonated with him on a personal level, as it mirrors the journeys of countless individuals across India, including his own.

"Vijay 69 is my tribute to my mother Dulari, her zeal for life, her passion to live every day at its fullest. Whatever I’m today is because of her and it is because of her I have the never give up attitude. She never backed away from any problems and she always told me to never do so too”, says Anupam Kher.

He further adds, “From the day I read the script, I could only think of my mother Dulari and I know I had to do this film as a homage to her spirit and her impact on my life. Every single day on the sets of Vijay 69, I channelled the lessons she taught me: never give up, believe in yourself, and always move forward, no matter the odds. This film, in a way, is a love letter to her and all the unsung heroes like her, who fight their battles every day with quiet determination. She’s been my greatest teacher, and I owe my success to her guidance and strength.”

Vijay 69 is set to be a heartfelt portrayal of resilience and the spirit to overcome life’s challenges, with Anupam Kher bringing his personal touch to the character, making it one of his most special performances to date. The movie is all set to release on Netflix on November 8.
