The actor talked to Koimoi and mentioned, “See somebody has an issue with how broad structured I am, I can’t cut my arm off na? And if somebody today does not know what I am dealing with in my life, with the health issue or all that’s is going on in my personal space, where it might have reflected a bit in my life. I might have not looked the way they expect me to look, as long as it is not hindering the way I connect with the on-screen, I cannot take it seriously beyond a point.” Also Read – Arjun Kapoor Says He is ‘Commercially Successful’ Actor And ‘Knows His Worth’

Arjun went on to talk about how his profession demands him to look a certain way but he can’t let that ruin everything else for him in life. He said he is not in a position to be taking people’s ‘superficial criticism’ to heart. “Yes, I owe it to my profession to look best, I strive for that. Some days I succeed, some days I have failed. You live and learn. But I cannot take that to heart. It does irritate you because a lot of people are superficial in criticising,” he said.

In another interview, Arjun opened up on his personal life and talked about his relationship with Malaika Arora. While speaking to Film Companion, the actor revealed that there are no plans of marriage as of now but he will always make his decisions public whenever he plans to marry. He added that he has given a lot of respect to his relationship and has tried his best to not let Arhaan’s (Malaika Arora‘s son’s) life being impacted. He was quoted as saying, “I feel you should respect your partner, and there is a past there… And I’ve been in that situation where I’ve seen things pan out publicly and it’s not always very nice, because there are kids affected. I try and keep a respectful boundary. I do what she’s comfortable with.”
