Arjun Kapoor Career

Acting career

Kapoor's first film work was as an assistant director on Nikhil Advani's Kal Ho Naa Ho in 2003. He also assisted Advani with the production of two of his father's films: A Tribute to Love (2006) and Wanted (2009). Kapoor was then signed to a three-film deal with Yash Raj Films, India's most prominent film company.

Kapoor would debut with Virus Diwan, a film produced under Yash Raj Films, which was postponed until sometime. Later, he joined Parineeti Chopra in a romantic drama that tells the tale of a Hindu and Muslim political couple. Kapoor had a spasm in his hamstring muscles while filming a running sequence in Barabanki, but he finished the scene after resting for five minutes. Ishaqzaade started a profitable venture worldwide, earning 670 million (US$8.4 million), and his work was lauded after winning the Zee Cine Award for Best Male Debut.

The action thriller Aurangzeb (2013), directed by Yash Raj Films, corresponds to the name of a Mughal emperor of the same name. It co-starred Jackie Shroff, Rishi Kapoor, and Amrita Singh, bringing two distant twin brothers Ajay and Vishal, who end up in each other's places as part of a massive plot to overthrowrown their biological father's empire. Rachna Saltz, a New York Times satisfaction with Kapoor's claim, claims he is "well-cast and matched" and is "a star of a previous generation." However, the film at the box office failed.

Kapoor appeared in Yash Raj Films for the third time in a row on Gunday, a crime drama starring Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra. Ali Abbas Zafar's film itineraries showed two bandits with a fresh attitude, in love with a dancer (Chopra). He characterized his image as "temperamental" who appears as a "moment's heat." Anupama Chopra, a film critic, characterized the film as a "unabashed love letter to the 1970s." Gunday was a commercial success, with a total investment of over 1.3 billion (US$16 million) worldwide.

Kapoor next worked with the producers Sajid Nadiadwala and Karan Johar to perform Alia Bhatt in a film version of Chetan Bhagat's popular book 2 States, which was released with the same name as his three-film contract with Yash Raj Films ended. Krish Malhotra, an IIM Ahmedabad MBA student aspiring to be a writer, wanted to become a writer. Kapoor "shows his pain through body language," Saurabh Dwivedi said, but "in some scenes starring his co-actor Ronit Roy," fell short. The project was well-received, garnering critical praise, and it earned more than 1.75 billion (US$22 million) worldwide, his biggest commercial triumph so far. He was nominated for the Best Actor award by the IIFA. Homi Adajania's latest release of 2014 was his Homi Adajania's satire Finding Fanny, which follows five dysfunctional people in search of a mysterious woman.

Kapoor appeared in his father's second younger brother, Tevar, a remake of the Telugu film Okkadu (2003), in which he appeared alongside Sonakshi Sinha and Manoj Bajpayee as a Kabaddi actor. He was director Amit Sharma's only option to play the role. The film was poorly received upon its release and suffered both critically and commercially.

Kapoor appeared as the host of the seventh season of Colors TV's reality stunts-performing series Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi for the seventh season. He appeared in R. Balki's satirical comedy-drama Ki & Ka, which was based on gender stereotypes. Kapoor played Kabir Bansal, a stay-at-home husband, in a male role. Ananya Bhattacharya gave the film a critical review and wrote that Kapoor "looks like a mouthing sharp" in India Today's "day." However, the film was a modest critical success and attracted a modest income of 1.03 billion.

Half Girlfriend, Mohit Suri-directed, teen romance drama, became Kapoor's first film of the year, which served as a retelling of Bhagat's book of the same name. When he enrolls a college, he was cast as Madhav Jha, a basketball champion who barely speaks English and eventually falls in love with a college girl (played by Shraddha Kapoor). Kapoor confessed to signing the film even though he didn't read the book in an interview. The film was both a critical and commercial failure.

Kapoor appeared with his uncle Anil in Mubarakan, a comedy directed by Anees Bazmee later this year. Ileana D'Cruz and Athiya Shetty were also cast in the film as the protagonists' love interests. Kapoor "exemplifies a comedic flair that is screaming out for a better film," Saibal Chatterjee wrote in her review.

Kapoor appeared in a spin-off to the romantic comedy Namastey London (2006), titled Namaste England and directed by Vipul Amrutlal Shah in 2018. Parineeti Chopra played a character that falls in love with an aspiring jewelry designer, reuniting with the actor after Ishaqzaade. The film turned out to be a big box office failure, and Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV closed his scathing analysis of the film, saying, "Seriously, one more film of this quality and Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra's careers could be in jeopardy." These two young actors are supposed to know better" - "hopefully, these two young actors know better."

Kapoor's career had another disappointing year in 2019 as the two films in which he appeared were produced were also commercial failures. In his first appearance, Raj Kumar Gupta's crime drama India's Most Wanted portrayed an agent in the role of a spy assigned a classified mission of finding a terrorist. Sanjay Dutt and Kriti Sanon appeared in Ashutosh Gowarikar's period drama Panipat. It was based on the 3rd Panipat war and portrayed how Bhau fought the war against the Afghan warrior Ahmed Shah Abdali.

Kapoor is waiting for the debut of Kaashvie Nair's Sardar Ka Grandson, in which he will partnered opposite Rakul Preet Singh, in March 2021. He is currently filming Bhoot Police co-starring Saif Ali Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez & Yami Gautam, and Mohit Suri's Ek Villain Returns starring John Abraham, Disha Patani and Tara Sutaria. Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar, his third screen sharing with Parineeti Chopra, was announced on March 19th. In Mohit Suri's "Ek Villain Returns" and a Hindi translation of Tamil film Comali, Arjun will be seen.
