‘Mission Impossible’ writers were looking for a script to shoot in India: Anil Kapoor
Actor Anil Kapoor, who is known for his successful adaptation of the TV show '24', feels that Ramayana and Mahabharata can be upgraded and executed for international audience. 'I believe Ramayana and Mahabharata can be upgraded and executed for international audience. They would be loved for sure. In fact, the writers of 'Mission Impossible' once told me that they were looking for a script which they wanted to shoot in India.
I had suggested Akbar-The Great. It would have made for a phenomenal story, similar on the lines of 'Game of Thrones',' the actor was quoted as saying in a report by IndianExpress.com.


While talking about the commercial entertainers in Bollywood, the actor reportedly said, 'There is nothing like outdated content, it could either be good or bad. If you look at 'Baahubali', the basic crux of the film is a story that has existed since years. We have seen similar movies made in India in the past as well but it still emerged as a hugely successful film. It was due to the way the narrative was laid out. So there's nothing as outdated content, it's the way you pitch it to the audience.'
