An achievement to be able to say no: Arjun
Actor Arjun Kapoor believes his biggest achievement in his almost decade-long career is to reach a position where he can afford to say no to a role that doesn't resonate with him. The 35-year-old actor started his journey as an assistant director and made his acting debut in 2012 with Yash Raj Films' romantic drama Ishaqzaade.
Arjun has starred in many commercially successful films
He has starred in commercially successful titles like Gunday, 2 States, and Ki & Ka as well as critically appreciated projects Aurangzeb and Finding Fanny. Arjun said he is satisfied with the way things have unfolded for him in the film industry.
'Ability to say no a huge power for an actor'
"There is a lot of happiness and satisfaction that in eight-nine years of my career I have been able to reach a place where I have the ability to say no," said Arjun. "It's a very big power that an actor can possess -- to decide to not go to work or to say I don't want to do this film," he added.
'Sardar Ka Grandson' premieres today on Netflix
The actor's upcoming films include Sardar Ka Grandson, which premieres exclusively on Netflix on Tuesday, adventure-horror-comedy Bhoot Police, Mohit Suri-directed action-thriller Ek Villain Returns, and the remake of Tamil comedy Comali. Directed by Pavan Kirpalani, best known for Phobia and Ragini MMS, Bhoot Police also featuring Saif Ali Khan, is slated to hit cinema halls on September 10.
I always aspire to outdo myself: Arjun
Arjun said as a performer he is never content and always aspires to outdo himself with every role he portrays. "I always crave to do better, I want to perform better... Creatively I am never satisfied and I am too emotional and involved with every film I do. That phase and journey will go on," he said.
'Grateful that I can carry a film on my shoulders'
He feels grateful that he has the capability of carrying the films on his shoulders and bring them to the audiences. "Today, when I do a film, I know it will be made and completed, and because of that people will get work. As an actor I have the capability of helping make a film come true, that is an achievement," he added.
