He played second fiddle to Akshay Kumar in Vipul Shah's 'Aankhen', which did reasonably well. His much-delayed 'Moksh' finally saw the light of the day but bombed. Then Vashu Bhagnani gave him a break in 'Deewaanapan' (opposite Dia Mirza), which bombed as well. Tips cast him opposite Preity Zinta and Mahima Chaudhry in 'Dil Hai Tumhaara', which also bombed. His friend Shabbir Boxwala gave him the opportunity to work opposite Aishwarya Rai in his 'Dil Ka Rishta', which failed. Recently, Khalid Mohamed cast him opposite Urmila Matondkar in his 'Tehzeeb', in which his performance was widely appreciated.
Arjun's next release is Rajiv Rai's 'Asambhav' opposite Priyanka Chopra and Naseeruddin Shah. Unarguably, Arjun, who is in desperate need of a hit, is banking heavily on this flick. He will also play second fiddle to Aamir Khan in Rakeysh Mehra's 'Rang De Basanti', which will start sometime early next year. He is one of the many heroes (with John Abraham and Rahul Khanna) in Vikram Bhatt's forthcoming 'Elaan'. Currently, he is shooting for Neeraj Vora's 'Dil Sachcha Chehra Jhootha' with Dia.
Not many know that Arjun still has an unreleased film that has been in the cans for a long time now - Shantanu Sheorey's 'Jadh' opposite Smriti Mishra. But that's another story! For now, Arjun needs a hit! |
