If you haven't been seeing much of Anil Kapoor in the promotional blitzkrieg of Anees Bazmee's Christ-massy comedy Welcome it's with good reason. The meticulous actor has decided to speak about his role in the film only in collaboration with Nana Patekar.

This isn't one of those small films that come and go. I believe it has a fabulous shelf life. And the film's impact will continue to be felt everywhere. "
