Arjun Kapoor has dabbled with various roles on the big screen in the span of 5 years but the last day of October got us intrigued as the actor released his look for his next, ‘Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar’. The film is directed by Diabker Banerjee and Arjun will be seen playing the role of a police officer that belongs to Haryana. Apart from getting into the skin of it, the actor is thrilled to play a cop on 70mm for the very first time. Arjun shared his excitement and said, “Playing a cop is traditionally considered cool in Hindi films. But in a Dibakar Banerjee film, a cop is presented as realistic and yet, unique as a person. Its that dichotomy of blending yet and still standing out that makes this role all the more exciting. Dibakar is very specific about the look of his characters. We worked on it for a long time before he decided that this is the look he wants. From my moustache to my hair cut, to the freckles on my face to make my character look like a cop and yet blend with his environment reflects just how Dibakar has imagined him and his world to be. It will be a gritty entertainer and I’m looking forward to the first day of the shoot.”

With this Arjun Kapoor has joined the list of the biggies of Bollywood who have made playing a cop on screen cool. Salman Khan, Ajay Devgn, Sanjay Dutt, Aamir Khan, the list is endless. But these megastars have often played a larger than life cop and going by what Arjun has to say we are pretty sure Dibaker will stay true to the Haryanvi roots. Will we also see Arjun picking up the Haryanvi dialect successfully? ‘Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar’ releases on 3rd August 2018 and is produced by Yash Raj Productions.
