 "Amid break-up with Malaika Arora, Arjun Kapoor says '12th Fail' star Vikrant Massey was better than him in 'Half Girlfriend': 'I wish I didn't have to...'")
After dating for a long time, Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora recently parted ways this year. The actor recently confirmed his breakup at an event during the promotion of Singham Again while interacting with a paparazzi and declared, “Nahin ab main single hoon, relax karo (No, I am now single. Relax).
That’s not all, in an interview with Galatta Plus, Kapoor said ‘12th Fail’ star Vikrant Massey was better than him in ‘Half Girlfriend’. He was quoted saying, “I wish I didn’t have to dub for Half Girlfriend with the dialect. I think I had done a good job on the set but then unfortunately, I had to dub and I am not somebody who is very fond of dubbing because it undermines the honesty in that moment.”
He added, “Also, we, in this generation don’t dub all the time. Not to say it was my worst or whatever but I look back as a critic and I wish I was able to retain the pilot, I was much better at my dialect. You learn the dialect and perform it.”
On Massey, Kapoor said, “Like Vikrant (Massey) is much better in the dub. He is a much better actor in the film also, in that sense, much more nuanced in that sense. But I was supposed to play more to the gallery but I was not able to get the dialect bang on in the dub which I had in the pilot. So that’s a minor look back and learning experience for mem.”
Malaika Arora has reacted to Arjun Kapoor’s remark and said it’s the actor’s prerogative. “I will never choose a public platform to talk about my personal life. So, whatever Arjun has said is entirely his prerogative,” said Malaika while talking to ETimes.
In a recent interview, Malaika shared how being financially independent is important and keeping finances separate from partners after marriage.
