Actor Arjun Kapoor is currently enjoying the success of his latest film Singham Again. His performance as a villain in the Rohit Shetty directorial was quite loved by the audiences as well as the critics. The success has not just made Arjun more humble than before, but has also left him quite empowered. In an exclusive conversation with SCREEN, the actor shares that even though he is fearless, there is one fear he doesn’t want to face again, which is losing a loved one.
Arjun said, “Everyone has their fears. For me, it would be losing loved ones. I have faced a lot of loss in life, so I wouldn’t like to lose more. That also shows up in my behaviour from time to time. Otherwise, I am quite fearless, and that comes with being empowered with this opportunity that I made the most of.”
Arjun Kapoor also shared how the last 12 years in showbiz has changed him. The actor said, “You constantly evolve as an actor. Sometimes you let go of things that you were holding on to. Age teaches you a lot about your profession. There is patience that comes, and you make better choices for your own sanity. 12 years have helped me evolve into a much better actor. I have done both good and bad work and it has helped me get better.”
He added, “This profession is very tough. I think I have become a little more detached now. I don’t get as emotional as I used to. I have become that way in the last few years, which is better. I am more calm and patient. I don’t regret anything. But I would tell my younger self that you don’t need to be in a rat race, and just work for the sake of it. You can take care of yourself, nourish yourself, enjoy life a bit more, and hold on to those moments. I just kept working because that time I didn’t know any better.”
