Arjun Kapoor relates himself to his character in the Sajid Nadiadwala-Karan Johar co-produced ‘2 States’!

Having played the rough and rowdy guy, who played with guns in his previous two films, actor Arjun Kapoor is now going to be featured as someone very calm and sober. His upcoming romantic film opposite newcomer Alia Bhatt, which is a screen adaptation of the book written by author Chetan Bhagat 2 States, is going to prove a wonderful project. Being co-produced by film makers SajidNadiadwala and Karan Johar, 2 States is slated to release on 18^th April, 2014. Based completely on Chetan’s novel with the same name, which also explains the author’s real life love story, the movie is being directed by debutant director Abhishek Varman. The best part is that the director has chosen not to tamper with the original story of the book.

Being portrayed as a very simple and common man kind of guy, Arjun Kapoor relates himself to his character in the Sajid Nadiadwala and Karan Johar co-produced 2 States. Talking about his role in the movie, where the first time he is not playing the violent and arrogant young spoilt boy, Arjun said, “I have never played a contemporary boy before. I have been either gun-toting or guns have been around me. But this is a character that I relate to personally – he is not a geek, but when he fall in love, he becomes this very goofy guy from this very assured human being. In that sense, the love story appealed to me, the fact that I am not playing this cocky, suave guy. It is one of the closest characters to me that I have chosen. This is something I could really relate to. My family is Punjabi, so I know this stereotypical thought process exists – ‘Achha, tu Gujarati se pyaar karta hai?’ which is common.”

Sajid Nadiadwala was the one, who had liked the story of ChetanBhagat’s 2 States and bought the rights for it, thereby deciding to make it into a film with Karan Johar!

Sajid Nadiadwala out of the fake case filed against him for just Re. 1!

There are no limits to which a person can stoop down in order to save themselves from the shame of having committed a crime. Yes, taking bribes is a crime, which the executive producer of Kick did and got caught by Sajid. Recently, the executive producer of the Sajid Nadiadwala produced as well as directed Kick filed a case of defamation against the producer. Sajid was unaware of all the matter because he was not involved in it in any way. He was not found guilty and it seems like only a publicity stunt on the executive producer’s part, who wanted some fame. She demanded for Re. 1 compensation from Sajid, which hardly makes any sense. This proves that her main agenda was to let down the ace producer in this very important time of his life, when he is turning director with his upcoming film Kick.

Kick is a remake of the South Indian movie with the same name. Sajid Nadiadwala has also written the script for Kick and is producing it under his banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. Along with being a complete action packed masala entertainer, Kick will showcase one of the best onscreen couple made so far, which is superstar Salman Khan and the very versatile Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Actress Jacqueline Fernandez will also be seen in the movie opposite Salman. The fake case filed against Sajid does not bother him as his lawyers are handling it well. In fact, he himself is a lawyer by qualification and when you are a big man, then such small obstacles keep coming. One does not have to worry about such petty issues, which are not even factual.

Sajid Nadiadwala’s directorial debut Kick releases on 25^th July next year, which further strengthens the Eid connection with Salman and Sajid. The producer is out of the fake case filed by the executive producer of Kick against him and with much excitement is busy with completing the shoot!

Sajid Nadiadwala’s Eid release ‘Kick’ is expected to prove a crucial moment for the producer!

Wanting to become a director from the very first day he joined the film industry, famous Indian film producer SajidNadiadwala has finally turned a director. Though after 30 years, but the producer has achieved the title and is very happy to start his directing career with the upcoming movie Kick. It is also special because Sajid will be directing his best friend of 20 years, superstar Salman Khan. Jacqueline Fernandez along with Randeep Hooda also shares the screen space with Salman in this film. Kick is the remake of a Telugu film with the same name that had released in 2009 and stayed with the producer since then.

Along with directing Kick, Sajid Nadiadwala has written the story as well as produced the movie. With this film releasing on the festival of Eid next year, Sajid and Salman are said to recreate the magic once again after Judwaa that they had did 16 years back. Judwaa too had hit the theatres on Eid and from there had started the story of multiple successes. Also, Salman Khan has an extraordinary bonding with the Eid releases, which has been a reason for his stardom since some time now. The actor promises the coming Eid that will see the release of Kick will be a grand affair for both him and his producer friend. Confirming the same he says, “Our fans can now rejoice with the dhamaal and entertainment that we will bring to you on the festival for 2014.”

Though Sajid Nadiadwala’s Kick has been delayed a lot in terms of its shooting, its release will surely prove to be a crucial moment in the producer’s life. A source said, “The much delayed directorial debut Kick is slated to hit theatres next year and that certainly will be momentous occasion for Sallu, who will return with a bang on Eid and might also prove a momentous moment for the producer turned director and might boost Jacqueline Fernandez’s career!”
