The myth that models make unsuccessful stars rings true in the case of model-turned-actor Arjun Rampal .
The actor has been slogging for almost five years with at least a dozen releases to his credit. Unfortunately, success has eluded him all the time.
And the disappointment continued with the dismal show of Apoorva Lakhia 's Ek Ajnabee.
Arjun was pitted against the acting doyen Amitabh Bachchan as the film shaped into a crime thriller.
'Ek Ajnabee' was Bollywood's adaptation of the Hollywood biggie 'Man on Fire' (2004) where Big B played the protagonist with Arjun as his close aide.
Arjun's role was that of an ex-army officer where there was no female lead opposite him.
If rumors are to be believed then there was speculation that Aamir Khan was responsible for Arjun's ouster from Rang De Basanti .
'Rang De Basanti' is supposed to hit the theatres in the last week of January 2006.
Besides the debacle of 'Ek Ajnabee', Arjun has major flops like Elaan and Vaada to his credit.
Arjun's major attractions in 2006 will Farhan Akhtar remake of Don and Karan Johar 's 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna'.
In Akhtar's 'Don' Arjun will be playing legendary Pran 's character. Arjun admits that he has accepted the role without hearing since he has full trust in Akhtar's talent.
Arjun has been successful too in getting role in Johar's much-awaited 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna'. The major attractions of the film will be the presence of Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan , Abhishek Bachchan , Preity Zinta and Rani Mukherjee .
These two films may well enable Arjun to taste success at the box-office.
