Arjun Rampal Reveals The Kind Of Character He Likes To Play

Arjun Rampal shared his views on performing diverse roles and working with different directors.

Arjun Rampal has gained frequent popularity with his looks and acting. Recently he grabbed the internet with his grey hair look. He appeared to be a handsome hunk and looked like one Hollywood actor. Arjun entered Bollywood in 2001 with his debut film ‘Pyaar Ishq Aur Mohabbat’. Until now his journey in the industry has been a remembering one with several films he has acted in.  

Arjun was last seen in the most anticipated film Dhakkad but unfortunately, it failed miserably. After Daddy and Paltan he appeared in a commercial movie Dhakkad which also stars Kangana Ranaut. Looking back at his filmography, Arjun has worked with various directors and played varied characters and roles. In a recent interview with a leading media portal, Arjun shared his thoughts on essaying different characters. 

He said: “Playing antagonists is fun to do because they are totally not you. You really and actually try finding a specific language to it. Also, a different voice with a different expression can be used while donning the character of a villain. You do ponder over how would you design it according to the bad guys and try to do it in the worst possible manner so that audiences will think you are a bad guy. This is something you never do in real life. It’s a great and nice way to bring out all that we bear in heart and mind through the characters.” To recall Om Shanti Om is one of the films he played an antagonist.

He also spoke about working with different directors, “I think each one is so special and unique in their craft. Parkash is one of my favourite directors I have worked with. He has given me such wonderful films and special roles. We have had a wonderful relationship work-wise and on a personal level as well. If anytime Prakash asks me to do any part, I shall readily do it. Prakash has such a good grip on his storytelling on his characterisation, and so does Madhur. Razneesh comes with his own style, and that should be celebrated.”

On the work front, Rock On star has a few films in the pipeline. 50% of shooting is accomplished for The Battle of Bhima Koregaon. He is filming for a Telugu film and is producing a web series. Apart from these, there is one more untitled action film that the producers are yet to announce.
