Arjun Kapoor on working with Vishal Bhardwaj's son Aasmaan in the film ‘Kuttey’; says the director is not trying to ape his father

Arjun Kapoor is quite busy promoting his latest film ‘Ek Villain Returns’. Arjun is also currently working on ‘The Ladykiller’. Arjun also has Vishal Bhardwaj's son Aasmaan Bhardwaj's debut directorial ‘Kuttey’. In a recent interview, Arjun shared his experience of working with Aasmaan.

Sharing his experience, Arjun said, "I am trying to strike a balance. That was what prompted me to (sign) 'The Lady Killer' and 'Kuttey'. I joke with Aasmaan, saying, ‘Baap ne ‘Kaminey’ banayi, beta ‘Kuttey’ bana raha hai'." Arjun further added, "When Vishalji and Aasmaan narrated the film, what drew me was that he wasn’t trying to ape his father. There is reminiscence of the learnings he has had from his dad. The father-son have overlapping qualities. Vishalji has been an involved producer."

The film ‘Kuttey’ will also star Naseeruddin Shah, Tabu, and Konkona Sensharma. Singing praises of Vishal Bharadwaj, the actor said, "I was close to working with him in the past, but it didn’t work out. His energy and atmospheric storytelling is inspirational. When you are surrounded by such people, you aspire to chase quality and not just commerce. Vishalji is a great listener who allows a discussion and takes your inputs. He doesn’t have a chip on his shoulder."

The film ‘Kuttey’ is currently in the pipeline. Arjun surely has quite a packed 2022 and 2023.
