"Rohit Shetty Believes That I Could Surprise People By Playing A Villain In Singham Again," - Arjun Kapoor

Arjun Kapoor will be seen playing a cold-blooded, outrageous, blood-splattered villain in Rohit Shetty's upcoming cop-universe flick, Singham Again. We all saw his impressive first look a few days ago. Arjun says he owes it to his mentors, Aditya Chopra and Rohit Shetty, for believing in his ability to essay negative roles!

Arjun says, "I started my career in the industry by playing characters with negative shades like Ishaqzaade and Aurungzeb, and after all these years, here I am, playing a villain in Singham Again! While Aditya Chopra saw it in me to play characters that are flawed then, now, I’m thankful to Rohit Shetty for having the belief that I could play an out-and-out villain in his ambitious and much-loved Cop Universe film! Rohit Shetty instilled faith in me and has been a guide at every step of the way!"Arjun adds, “Both these people have been true mentors in my film career, and I’m grateful that a hit-machine like Rohit Shetty believes that I could surprise people by playing a villain in Singham Again."

The actor says it is thrilling for him to play the villain in Rohit Shetty's film because it gave him the chance to experiment as an actor too. He shared, "I have always wanted to experiment on screen and give audiences something different to look at. So, playing an arch-enemy of the cops in Singham Again was a thrilling opportunity for me."

Kapoor adds, "As I said, it feels like a full circle in my career when I'm on the sets of Singham Again. I got a lot of love by playing characters that were negative early in my career, and I wish to get the same and more with Singham Again."
