Arjun
Kapoor
says
success
and
failure
are
a
part
of
life
and
he
hopes
year
2019
will
be
a
better
one
for
him.
The
actor
said
that
he
considers
himself
an
'underdog' in
the
industry,
a
place
where
everybody
goes
through
highs
and
lows.
"Some
choices
do
go
wrong
but
you
live
and
learn.
I
want
to
do
good
work.
I
am
happy
when
fans
believe
in
me.
But
without
taking
advantage
of
the
situation,
I
have
always
considered
myself
as
an
underdog," Arjun
told
reporters
at
the
trailer
launch
of
India's
Most
Wanted.
Calling
his
debut
Ishaqzaade,
a
one-of-a-kind
film,
the
actor
said
he
played
a
negative
character
in
almost
90
per
cent
of
the
movie
in
an
era
ruled
by
chocolate
boys.
"The
audience
appreciated
and
accepted
me.
I
am
here
today
because
they
pay
money
to
watch
our
films,
sometimes
they
don't
and
that
happens
to
the
best
of
us.
And
that
is
a
wake-up
call
for
all
of
us
to
work
harder
and
chose
better."
Arjun
said
he
will
always
strive
to
be
part
of
good
stories.
"It
is
a
very
long
race
and
you
don't
become
like
those
big
names
that
have
survived
for
15-20
years
without
having
conviction
in
your
work
and
without
the
love
and
support
of
the
audience.
I
hope
people
continue
to
support
me."
The
33-year-old
actor
said
he
has
always
tried
to
pick
up
interesting
and
different
kind
of
films.
"Sometimes
films
come
to
you
accidentally,
sometimes
you
are
destined
to
do
them
and
sometimes
you
take
a
chance,"
he
added.
Arjun
said
he
wanted
to
work
with
director
Raj
Kumar
Gupta
and
"India's
Most
Wanted"
is
the
perfect
project.
"I
went
with
his
conviction.
Whether
it
is
an
espionage,
a
thriller
or
a
film
about
unsung
heroes,
you
are
not
playing
it
to
the
gallery
as
a
mainstream
hero.
It
is
exciting
yet
scary
and
challenging."
The
film,
a
tribute
to
unsung
heroes,
centres
around
the
capture
of
India's
most
wanted,
without
firing
a
single
bullet.
The
film's
teaser,
which
was
recently
released,
showed
a
man
offering
prayer
while
in
the
background
he
quotes
Lord
Krishna
from
the
Bhagavada
Gita.
"I'm
not
killing
people.
I'm
sending
their
souls
into
new
bodies.
These
are
not
my
words
but
it
is
Lord
Shri
Krishna
in
The
Gita,"
a
voice
is
heard
saying
in
the
teaser.
This
created
quite
a
stir
on
social
media
with
many
people
claiming
that
the
teaser
shows
a
casual
mention
of
the
Bhagavada
Gita
by
a
criminal
to
justify
his
actions.
When
asked
to
comment
on
this,
Arjun
said
the
film
does
not
target
any
religion
or
caste.
He
called
the
film
"pro-India".
"I
am
not
a
Hindu
or
Muslim,
I
am
an
Indian
and
we
all
are
Indians
who
are
making
a
film.
We
are
putting
our
country,
our
humanity
first.
This
film
is
about
those
people
who
do
not
think
about
religion,
caste
and
creed.
"It
is
interesting
for
people
sitting
at
home
to
type
things
like
this.
Are
they
putting
their
lives
on
risk?
People
use
religion
to
make
others
feel
a
certain
way.
We
are
depicting
a
film
that
is
pro-India.
Give
the
film
a
chance
before
giving
importance
to
such
matters,"
he
said.
The
film,
produced
by
Gupta,
Myra
Karn
and
Fox
Star
Studios,
is
scheduled
for
release
May
24.
