He tried to break the gender stereotypes
with his film Ki & Ka and now Arjun Kapoor
is going all out to support a real life
initiative of gender equality with Girl Rising,
Schools initiative. The campaign talks about
promoting education for young girls and
the Gen Y star has extended his support to
the initiative since it is in sync with his
thoughts and ideologies.
Further talking about the need of
education, Arjun Kapoor believes that
women getting educated will bring a much
bigger positive change in the society as it
will help them in parenting, making them
better professionals in whichever field they
chose to pursue. He further insisted on the
need of giving women equal opportunities
which in turn will benefit our country as a
whole.
Elaborating on his involvement in the
campaign, Arjun also asserted that he will
be a part of several campaigns including
the on-ground work. In fact, the actor is
already planning to take the initiative a step
further on Teacher's Day [September 5] and
he also mentioned about attending a
conclave in Delhi to create awareness about
this. While he appreciated the efforts made
by Freida Pinto and Priyanka Chopra who
too are a part of the Girl Rising initiatives,
the actor believes that having a male
perspective might establish a better
connect with many.
As of now, Arjun Kapoor expressed his
happiness over collecting Rs. 35 lakhs for
the campaign, at the same time, he also
reinstated the need of men coming out and
talking about empowering women which
will further add to the changes that the
campaign is aiming at.
On the film front, last seen in Mubarakan,
Arjun Kapoor will soon start prep for
Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar as well as
Namastey Canada. Reports also claim that
he will be playing the leading man in Raj &
DK's Farzi.
