Arjun ‘worked hard for this attention’ and enjoys it

Arjun Kapoor says he enjoys being in the limelight as he has worked hard to get fame and recognition as an actor. Arjun, 30, who is the son of producer-director Boney Kapoor and his former wife Mona, says he enjoys the attention that comes with being a celebrity.

"I have worked hard for this attention and if I will get afraid of it then what's the point. People, who say 'I don't like the attention', are liars. In our profession, we work hard to get love and acclaim and if you start saying that you don't like it, it doesn't make sense," Arjun said.

The actor, who enjoys a great fan following, said he loves connecting with his admirers.

"I know how to deal with it. Some people can't deal with it and that might be the reason why they don't enjoy it. It is unfair for me comment on anyone else, but I love this attention and like connecting with fans," he said He will soon start working on ‘Shamitabh’ director Balki's film. "My next is Balki's film opposite Kareena Kapoor. I will start the work on the project by the end of this month. It's an urban romantic film and I am very thrilled to team up with Balki and Kareena. They are the two people I always wanted to work with," he said.
