Filmi Ladies: The Kapoors: Jennifer Kendal, Kunal, Karan, and Sanjana!

At Filmi Ladies Podcast, Pitu Sultan and the Gutter’s own Beth Watkins continue their look at the Kapoor film dynasty with even more Kapoors! “Continuing our Kapoor series, we discuss Shashi Kapoor’s family in this episode: wife and actress Jennifer Kendal and their children Karan, Kunal, and Sanjana. If you know anything about them at all, it’s probably that they all launched in films and never went anywhere as actors, but we watched a film starring each of them to flesh out that story. Jennifer, of course, was an accomplished stage actor before her marriage to Shashi, and when she chose to dip her toes back in acting, you can see the talent! Films discussed: Junoon (1978), 36 Chowringhee Lane (1981), Vijeta (1982), Sultanat (1986) and Hero Hiralal (1988).”
