You will hear an announcement soon, Boney says
Boney has told The Times of India, "Khushi is also keen on acting." Talking about why he decided against launching her, he said, "I have the resources, but I would rather have someone else launch her because I am her father and one tends to get indulgent." "You can't afford to do that as a filmmaker and nor is it good for the actor."

Boney had earlier launched brother Sanjay Kapoor
For the unversed, Boney had launched his younger brother Sanjay Kapoor, opposite then debutante Tabu with the 1995 film Prem. However, that film was delayed by several years before it hit theaters and eventually turned out to be a dud. Citing his example, Boney said, "I think I became an indulgent brother with Sanjay when he made his entry into films (sic)."
