Arjun opens up about wanting to feel validated

Arjun has spoken about positivity and genuine love. He said, “I have waited for a long time patiently and respectfully to be loved and appreciated. I think my debut was met with so much love, somewhere, I just wanted to rekindle that feeling. I’m just taking it one day at a time. Whether it’s in interviews or just regular people who call me by the character’s name; you want to feel validated. So I’m really enjoying this phase.

I’m talking about the paying audience at this point, along with the industry and the media. Perhaps, the surge of goodwill and excitement comes from ‘good prevailing over evil’ in that sense. Eventually, there are enough good people, and there’s enough goodness in this world where they are backing you.
