Arjun Rampal is going through the best phase of his career. Post 8216;Om Shanti Om8217;, 8216;Rock On8217;!! and 8216;The Last Lear8217; which won him accolades for his fine performance, Arjun feels that film-makers are finally taking him seriously. 8220;I was so disheartened in the intervening period. I started dreading Fridays at one point. Everything boils down to how your films fare at the box-office. Nothing else matters, frankly,8221; Arjun admits honestly.

Arjun has tasted critical and commercial success in 8216;Om Shanti Om8217; and 8216;Rock On!!8217;. 8220;I am the same Arjun. Only thing, the perception of people has changed,8221; he smiles. The actor will be seen in 8216;Fox8217; next, directed by actor Deepak Tijori. 8220;I was keen to do a thriller. Deepak is an amazing storyteller. It8217;s his finest film so far,8221; he states. 8216;Fox8217; is slated for release in February next year.

Arjun has bagged two prestigious assignments 8212; Prakash Jha8217;s 8216;Rajniti8217;, a modern-day take on 8216;Mahabharata8217; and Dr. Chandraprakash Dwivedi8217;s 8216;Kunal8217;. Also, Arjun plans to start his next film soon, after 8216;I See You8217;. 8220;It will be an action film,8221; is all that he8217;s ready to divulge.
