Arjun' concentrates on the bigger crimes: Shaleen
Shaleen Malhotra has established his niche on the small screen as the super cop Arjun in the show - Har Yug Me Aaega Ek Arjun. The show's actress Sana Khan, who quit the show sometime back, had become a boys' domain. But with Shital Shah's entry in the show as Ayesha, the show now has a leading lady to add a different angle to the storyline.
When quizzed Shaleen whether a girl character is important to run a show successfully, he says, "It is not about a boy or a girl. Any character can successfully run a show as long as the storyline is good. But for my show I can say that to show a different angle other than the crimes, a woman character was needed."
With a number of crime based shows on different Hindi GECs, is the crime genre the new popular thing on TV? Shaleen replies, "The crime rate is rising in our country. As far as other shows are concerned, they take a single case that has happened and show it. But in Arjun, we see the larger picture. We take the bigger issues like human trafficking, drug abuse and not concentrate on singular cases while making an episode."
