"In 'Don', to limp was difficult" - Arjun Rampal
- IndiaGlitz, [Monday,October 09 2006]
Who could have ever imagined Arjun Rampal filling up Pran's shows in the remake of 'Don'. Well, Farhan Akhtar obviously thought so and here we have Arjun Rampal ready to be seen in one of his most interesting roles ever. So how was the feeling when the role was offered to Arjun?
He says, ÂWonderful but Jasjit in the original was 44! is what I thought when Farhan called me for Don. So I went met up with him and little did I know of how well he had got the whole story structured in his head.
To limp was difficult initially but the concept of cane with Jasjit at all times was very interesting. More than a prop it became a part of the character and so did the Âkada and the Âfamily photograph he carries with him in the movie. I always thought the character was more emotional than aggressive and the rage side to it was only an outcome of what he was made to go through.
It was a lot of fun especially when I had to walk the top of the Petronas skybridge! Looking down from that height wow!!
It was a fabulous experience and I wish all our attempts will be appreciated."
