In an exclusive conversation with Bollywood Bubble, Arjun has responded to his comment and has emphasised that making choices based on personal preference and circumstances is natural in the film industry. He said, “I don’t think it was about me or someone. Karan is one of the first people who picked up the phone and spoke to me. So we get along to the degree that we have openly spoken about doing films and not doing films. I always say no because you know how to do a film. You’ve made a film. You’ve written a similar film. You might not be excited about the material. So it’s not always because I don’t say no to a film and I want to touch it easily. There are various reasons for that. I’ll start talking about what I didn’t do.”

He further added, “What I did wasn’t difficult. I’ll talk about what I didn’t do. Can we play our best? I think he meant that and it happened. For the sake of truth. Let’s put it this way. It’s part and parcel of reaching this way in the collaborative engine. Sometimes we serve an exchange of conversation in and out. That’s why he gave me that regard and Karan is no different. It’s not like those films he’s saying no, meant ki unhe aage kaam nahi, proper nahi toh silsala jari hai, because usme creative cheezein bhi hoti hai. But I think aise hi cheezein hundred percent.”

Arjun’s response reflected his candid and lighthearted approach to the situation, showing no hard feelings towards Karan or his comments. “Every actor at some point has said no to some film because hum sab toh kar nahi sakta hai. Tariqat correct hona chahiye, apke reasons se hi hona chahiye, aur ek kameez hona chahiye, collaboration nahi karne ki. That’s what I think. I’m looking forward to collaborating with all and see us coming together,” he concluded.

Meanwhile, apart from Arjun, Singham Again also starred Ajay Devgn in the title role, alongside Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Tiger Shroff, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Deepika Padukone, Jackie Shroff and more. It is written and directed by Rohit Shetty, who also co-produced it under Rohit Shetty Picturez, alongside Reliance Entertainment, Jio Studios and Devgn Films.
