Arjun Kapoor: Playing Double Role Isn’t Easy

Arjun Kapoor will be seen playing a double-role for the second time in his five-year-old acting career in Mubarakan. The 32-year-old previously essayed a double-role in the 2013 film Aurangzeb.

 

Asked how easy or difficult it is for an actor to essay a double-role on screen, Arjun told:

“It’s definitely not easy. It is difficult. But, it’s a challenge you look forward to as an actor. That’s what excites you, makes you nervous and work harder because you are not just playing one but two (characters/roles) … With ‘Mubarakan’ being a comedy, there is a definite new situation for me.”

 

The actor shared he’s not done comedy before, but his films have had a dose of humor.

He added:

“I have never done an out-an-out entertainer. Of course, there is a certain amount of nerves that come into prepare but then you have a good director like Anees Bazmee, who is the king of comedy and king of double roles… you know he will walk you through it. That challenge was very exciting because I had Anees sir.”
