Quick learner Arjun Kapoor preps up for ‘Mubarakan’

TIL Desk Bollywood/ Arjun Kapoor will be playing the role of a Sikh for the first time in ‘Mubarakan’ and has put in immense hard work to get into the skin of the character. Before Arjun started shooting, the makers wanted to ensure that he got his authentic Punjabi accent bang-on, hence they organised a dialect coach for him so that he would get all his nuances right.

After two days of coaching, the coach felt that he was so proficient with his accent that he didn’t need the coaching anymore. Arjun whose roots are in Punjab, has been born and brought up in a Punjabi family and clearly qualifies for the perfect Punjabi munda.

Arjun Kapoor says, “I guess being brought in a joint family and hearing Punjabi being spoken by my grandparents all the time really stuck with me and when we started readings I realised I could recall the tonality from my childhood this making the process a little easier than I had imagined…” Anees Bazmee’s Mubarakan has an interesting cast and is all set to witness a lot of firsts. For the very first time, the ‘Chacha-Bhatija’ jodi, Anil Kapoor and nephew Arjun Kapoor have come together for a film, which has built up excitement among the audience.
