Arjun Kapoor is quite a favourite when it comes to the paps. During a chat with BT, explaining his equation with the photographers, he said, “They are doing their job. They help me reach out to my fans. There is cordial respect that we share. If I have ever requested them to not take my picture, they have respected that. So, on some occasions, I go out of my way to ensure they get that picture they want.”
Elaborating further on the pap culture, the Bollywood actor added, “Main kapde pehenke bahar hi jaa raha hoon.
Mere kya jaa raha hai unko ek picture dene mein? As long as they respect the time when we don’t want to be photographed, it is okay. Thankfully, that mutual respect is there. So, I don’t mind the paps at all. You can’t be arrogant and rude. At the end of the day, we are in the same profession and we need each other. They are part of our daily lives. We also thrive on the fact that we are photographed. No actor will ever say, ‘Mujhe photo khichwana pasand nahi hai’. It is just that when you are in a personal moment or aren’t ready, they should understand that as well. I engage with them perhaps a lot more than others. I like them.”
