Actor Anil Kapoor’s lookalike Giovanni DelBiondo talks to us exclusively and shares his wild dream to be a Bollywood actor and meet Hrithik Roshan.

Oddly, DelBiondo isn’t unversed with Kapoor’s stardom. “I have watched numerous Anil Kapoor films. He has got a cool swagger about him. My favorite film of him is Virasat (1997),” he says, adding, “My parents are into Bollywood as they appreciate different cultures and wanted to inculcate that in me. So, they introduced me to Bollywood. I am very lucky as many Americans don’t understand how wonderful Bollywood movies are. I have to say, my favorite films are from Bollywood, and not American films.”

A Bollywood aficionado himself, DelBiondo, who also speaks Hindi, adds, being a Hindi film actor will be his “wildest dream come true”. “The first Bollywood movie I ever watched was Veer Zara. I’ve seen every Shah Rukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan movie. It would be a dream come true for me to meet Hrithik! He is amazing and I am a huge fan”, he mentions.
