Jhakaas actor Anil Kapoor, who recently turned 61 years old , had an on-set celebration which he says was made special by the team of "Race 3". "Who says an on-set birthday has to be boring? My birthday was made extra special by the Salman Khan Films and Tips teams! Thank you all for your love and wishes," Anil, whose birthday was on December 24, tweeted on Tuesday.

Recently, Anil Kapoor said that artistes should experiment with mediums and so, he is even willing to act in a street play. Asked what made him do a show on the digital platform, Anil said, "We have to change with time and medium. As an artiste, I want to reach out to and connect with people. I am ready to act in a street play if people will gather to watch the story."
"Yes, film has always been my medium but whether it is television or web series, any popular medium that gives me the opportunity to tell a great story or to be a part of a huge show, I will surely explore that," he added
