After starring in the multiple Oscar winning Slumdog Millionaire, Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor will play an anti-terrorist cop in hit American TV action drama 24.


Contactmusic.com reports that Anil will play an Indian counter-terrorist cop who teams up with Canadian actor Kiefer Sutherland in the eighth season of the long-running programme.  


"Anil would play Jack Bauer's counterpart in India. It's not known yet whether Anil will appear in just one episode of whether he'll be a recurring character. Either way the producers are very excited about having him onboard," said a source from the production house.
