Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor was in Delhi for the promotions of his upcoming movie ‘Finding Fanny’ and said that it is difficult for him to relate to his characters onscreen.

Arjun, who plays Savio in ‘Finding Fanny’, said: “I can’t relate much to the characters I have played on screen. That’s because my characters have always ended up disrespecting women somehow. Having said that, I also believe it’s not necessary to completely relate to the character you are playing.”

“You can’t even relate to any single emotion of your character and it’s interesting to enact how differently it would react to the circumstances. I could relate to Savio’s attitude in life.”

Talking about his uncle and actor Anil Kapoor, Arjun said his chachu will always be an inspiration.

“There’s so much to learn from whatever Anil Chachu has done in his career. He will always be an inspiration,” he said.

The actor was accompanied by his co-star from the movie, Deepika Padukone, director Homi Adajania and producer Dinesh Vijan.

“I have grown up watching Anil Chachu’s movies. I feel he still looks younger and better than me. His energy is remarkable,” said Arjun.

Talking about his look in the movie, Arjun said, “I stopped working out while shooting for this movie as the character required a certain slouchy body language.”

The actor further said that he had a great experience sharing the sets with nuanced actors like Pankaj Kapur, Naseeruddin Shah, Dimple Kapadia and Deepika Padukone.

Before ‘Finding Fanny’, Arjun was seen in ‘2 States’ with Alia Bhatt, which went on to earn more than Rs 100 Crores at the box office.

‘Finding Fanny’ will hit the screens on September 12.
