Anil Kapoor's new ad shows him as Mr.India. Anil Kapoor, a social media sensation with over 5.8 million Instagram followers, recently pulled off a disappearing act by deleting all his posts and even his profile picture. This mysterious move instantly sent his fans and followers into a frenzy. The enigma surrounding his sudden absence from the platform also ignited speculation about his highly anticipated return as 'Mr India.'

However, the veil of suspense was lifted today, on October 21, when a new advertisement surfaced on social media, featuring Anil Kapoor reprising his iconic 'Mr India' persona.

In the cult classic film 'Mr India,' Anil Kapoor's character gains the power of invisibility through a magical cloak, a concept that resonated strongly with the audience. In this new advertisement, a vase dramatically falls, only to be mysteriously retrieved by an unseen hand, hinting at the invisible presence of 'Mr India.' Shortly after, Anil Kapoor makes a dramatic reentry, appearing in his signature attire of a coat, pants, and hat.

The excitement surrounding this revival was further shared by Anil Kapoor's daughter, Sonam Kapoor, who took to social media to express her enthusiasm, captioning the ad with, "Wow @googleindia what an amazing AD!!!! Mr. India hasn’t aged a day @anilskapoor. Love it (sic)."

"Mr India" is a beloved 1987 superhero film directed by Shekhar Kapur and produced by Boney Kapoor and Surinder Kapoor. It stars Anil Kapoor, Sridevi, and Amrish Puri, and tells the captivating story of Arun Verma, a virtuous violinist and philanthropist who acquires a cloaking device that bestows upon him the gift of invisibility. His encounter with journalist Seema Sohni (Sridevi) and his battle against the villainous Mogambo (Puri) added layers of excitement and intrigue to the plot.

As for Anil Kapoor's Instagram vanishing act on Friday, October 20, it left many speculating whether his account had been hacked, while others saw it as a clever promotional stunt for his upcoming film 'Animal.'

On the professional front, Anil Kapoor is set to grace the big screen in Sandeep Vanga Reddy's upcoming film 'Animal,' alongside Ranbir Kapoor, Rashmika Mandanna, and Bobby Deol, playing the pivotal role of Ranbir Kapoor's father, Balbir Singh. The movie is slated for a theatrical release on December 1 and promises to be a thrilling cinematic experience, with Rashmika Mandanna as Geetanjali, Ranbir's love interest, and Bobby Deol in the antagonist's role.
