Name: Zahan Kapoor
Profession: Actor
Location: Mumbai, India
Why you should know him: Kapoor made his film debut with Hansal Mehta’s Faraaz (2022) and was most recently seen on Netflix’s Black Warrant, which has spent five weeks on the streaming platform’s Top 10 Shows list. Currently, he’s in Aditya Rawal’s play Siachen, a survival drama about three Indian soldiers stranded on the highest battlefield in the world.
If his last name didn’t give it away, he belongs to Bollywood’s Kapoor family: “I’m uniquely positioned in the sense that there’s lineage and legacy, but I grew up outside the immediate sphere of the film industry. My mum [Sheena Sippy] is a photographer, my dad [Kunal Kapoor] is a filmmaker. I’m blessed to have grown up in an atmosphere that was really immersed in art and culture, and I know how much of a privilege it is to be in an environment that leans so positively towards anything artistic and cultural.”
