Arjun Kapoor, who is receiving unanimous love for his cold-blooded evil look as the villain in Rohit Sherry's much-awaited Singham Again, says he loves to essay any part that his director thinks he fits to a T. Arjun says it is his love for cinema that allows him to experiment with the roles that he chooses to play on screen!

Arjun says, `I never planned to become an actor but I fell in love with the movies as I spent more and more time observing how dedicated and passionate people were in this industry to provide wholesome entertainment to the people of our country. It was a joy to see people, near and dear to me, wanting to spread happiness through their work.`

He adds, `So when I wanted to explore acting, I just wanted to act and face the camera. I was never fixated on what I was selected to play on screen. I wanted to feel the same passion and joy that I had seen actors feel when they gave the shot. I wanted to feel the rush to be in front of the camera and I wanted to work very hard to do a good job.`

Arjun reveals he didn't know he was being auditioned to play the hero in Ishaqzaade. He says, `Being launched as a lead also happened because Aditya Chopra saw that I had the fire in me to perform as a hero on screen. I never auditioned knowing I was being tested for the lead in Ishaqzaade! I was overwhelmed when I bagged the role. I still remember the day. It was probably one of the happiest days of my life.`

The actor emotionally adds, `I only have gratitude that I get to act and that I'm doing what I love every single day. So, I have never been an insecure actor. I have played the lead, I was the first from my time to do a two-hero film in Gunday, the first to do an ensemble in Mubarakan, to be chosen to play a hero who was a house husband to Kareena Kapoor Khan in Ki & Ka and now I'm playing an out and out anti-hero!`

Arjun further says, `I'm just too thankful to all the directors and producers who have given me a chance to shine. So, I'm ecstatic that a stalwart filmmaker like Rohit Shetty saw I had the potential to play the villain in his massively mounted Singham Again which boasts of so many stars in it! I know I have given it my all and I'm looking forward to seeing how people react to me when the film releases.`
