Suneil Anand Biography

Suneil Anand, Son of legendary 'evergreen' actor Dev Anand, was born on June 30th 1956 in the Bombay-based Punjabi-speaking family of Dev and Mona Anand. His actress mom's screen name was Kalpana Kartik. Vijay and Chetan Anand are his uncles. He is cousin to famous director Shekhar Kapoor. Neelu and Aruna are his other cousins and are the estranged wives of actors Navin Nischol, and Parikshat Sahni. He has been trained in martial arts from grandmaster Sifu Leung Ting. He debuted as an actor in 'Anand Aur Anand' in 1984, and went on to act in 3 more movies, his last one being 'Master' in 2001. He graduated from the American University, Washington, D.C. with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration and then joined his Father's Film Production Company Navketan International Films. Today he is actively involved with the company.

Suneil Anand makes India's first martial arts movie
A News story from - 05th Feb 2001

Having tried his luck as an actor, Dev Anand's son Suneil Anand has stepped into direction with Master, a film based on martial arts.

Master has many firsts to it. Besides being Suneil's maiden directorial venture the film is the first martial arts film to be made in India. Also it is the first Indian film that is shot in China.

Suneil himself has been a student of martial arts for eighteen years and has gone through its arduous study in Hong Kong under the baton of Grandmaster Sifu Leung Ting. That's where he conceived the idea of making this movie. He even roped in his reluctant teacher to play a significant role in the film.

Suneil is convinced the film will do well as it is based on the original idea and also has some romance strewn around the spine tickling fights. Music director Viju Shah has composed its score.

Having grown under his father's imposing shadow Suneil was always too enamored with the world of films. Still he didn't hop on to the tinsel bandwagon at the first available opportunity but rather went to the US and did a double major in Business Administration and Mass Communication. After coming back to India, Suneil made his acting debut in Anand Aur Anand.

But being an actor was probably not in his fate as his debut and three more films fell flat on box office.

What Dev Anand has to say about sons film career -
Were you disappointed with your son Suniel when he put an end to his acting career after his debut flopped?

I was let down slightly. He’s a good thinker. He made a film in Chicago, USA. He looks after my company. I need someone to do that.
