He looked great in Ek Ajnabee with Amitabh Bachchan. His recent release Humko Tumse Pyar Hai may have bombed the box office but nothing seems to be affecting him really. We found out why.

He beat Abhishek Bachchan, Kay Kay Menon and Nana Patekar to win the BBC Asia Award for the Best Supporting Actor of the year. He won the award for his fabulous performance in Ek Ajnabee as the duplicitous Bangkok dude in the film.

The public poll on BBC Asia was on for the past 9 weeks. Arjun enjoys a great fan following overseas that helped him win the award against strong nominees.

The actor who is shooting for Farhan Akhtar's Don is finding this award a great morale booster as his performance was also appreciated when the film had released.
