Success has a side effect " enemies " as Arjun Kapoor is discovering. Vested interests have been talking about the change in the newbie's attitude post his last film, 2 States which touched the '100-crore mark. It is being said that he has been acting uppity, even with his mentor Salman Khan. The incident is said to have happened when Arjun was shooting for a commercial and Salman for Sajid Nadaidwala's Kick in Mehboob Studios in Bandra. Word from the crew was that Arjun didn't go across to meet Salman for the first two days till the senior actor sent word asking him over for lunch. A source close to Arjun rubbishes the rumour. "Arjun shares an extremely personal relationship with Salman. He doesn't want to trivialise it by clarifying what happened. The fact is Arjun was shooting at the studio for a photoshoot for one of his commercials and he was there for just six hours " from 2 pm to 8 pm. When he reached and heard that Salman and Sajid were next door shooting for Kick, he immediately went to meet him. He met Salman and Sajid after more than a month post release of 2 States. After he chatted with both, Salman asked him to come back after pack up and have dinner with him. During the course of the photoshoot when Arjun told Salman that his stylist had gone away and he didn't have clothes to shoot, Salman offered him his own clothes for the shoot." So after Arjun packed up around 8.30 pm, he again went to the Kick set and had dinner with Salman who was sitting with Puneet Issar and Suraj Pancholi. Adds the source, "In fact, Arjun got late for a store launch the same night because he was with Salman but he couldn't tell the launch people why he got delayed. Arjun was to reach by 9.30 but he reached at 10 pm. Neither did he tell Salman that he was getting late as he has too much respect for him to do that. Arjun has his own equation with Salman but will never speak about it. They are as connected to each other as they were from the beginning and Salman knows each and everything that is happening in Arjun's life. In fact, Arjun can never fly high with success as three people in his life will always keep him grounded " Aditya Chopra, Salman Khan and his father Boney Kapoor. There are people who don't like the fact that Arjun and Salman are close and maybe spreading such rumours of a rift between them." |
