Arjun Kapoor is thrilled with the response he is getting from the industry and media after the trailer of 'Kuttey' dropped last week.

The trailer has been unanimously appreciated as people have raved about the refreshing storytelling, the fantastic ensemble cast, the powerful performances that one would get to see in the film and also how Arjun is set to give another credible performance post 'Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar'.

Interestingly, Arjun, who plays a cop in 'Kuttey', also played a policeman in 'Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar'. The actor feels playing a cop is definitely a lucky charm for him because of the appreciation that he has been receiving and he wants people to now love his performance in 'Kuttey'.

Arjun says, “If playing a cop is my lucky charm, I would definitely be very happy. Playing a policeman in 'Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar' gave me a lot of love, invaluable appreciation and of course, some best actor awards. So, if I get the same respect and accolades by playing a cop again in 'Kuttey', I would happily take that because I’m also a greedy actor who wants to leave a mark in the films that I do.”

He adds, “For me to play a cop in 'Kuttey' was a fulfilling experience, because to be a law abiding person and to try and operate out of the law was an interesting dichotomy to have to play a corrupt official. It was very exciting to wear the uniform, wear the cap, do the salute, look and feel the part.”

Arjun says he has been pushed by his director, the young Aasman Bhardwaj, to deliver a performance that he is super proud of.

He says, “I have been pushed by Aasman to explore and show my skills in 'Kuttey'. It’s the best thing to have a director who believes in you and wants the best for you. He has always stood next to me like a rock, telling me that I can go that extra distance.”

He adds, “I hope people appreciate what I have done in the film. I look forward to their reaction. I feel playing a cop could be a game changer for me, as one end of the spectrum I have played a suspended police officer, now I have played a not so nice police officer and I would like to put it out there in the world that I hope to play a positive difference making character who is in uniform too because our policemen constantly and unconditionally work to keep us safe day in and day out. I have huge respect for them and I want to show that on screen if given a chance.”
