Arjun Kapoor is currently busy in the promotion of his upcoming film Mubarakan which features Anil Kapoor, Ileana D'Cruz, and Athiya Shetty also.

Recently during the promotion, the actor was asked if he is scared of being tagged as a metrosexual hero, Arjun said, "I don't think I have been tagged as a metrosexual hero. Half Girlfriend did well in UP, Bihar, Rajasthan and Indore. Gunday also did well in those regions. Ishaqzaade was a pan-India success at that point."

Arjun added, "I am always trying to meander my way into every household in India. I want to be a pan India hero. That's how you can survive. When you have survived for four or five years and have a body of work, you should only look towards making more inroads. You cannot be stuck in personas of being massy, urban, classy, sophisticated or rustic. These are tags that you can break."

The actor also revealed, "I am very proud that I hail from the film fraternity . I am never apologetic about it. That doesn't mean that there aren't other facets to my personality. I am a well-rounded person, not just physically (laughs)."

On doing film with women derogatively, Arjun stated, "Films mirror society. When you read about a character, if it's not written with a particular agenda, say where they not purposely trying to malign the opposite sex and the journey brings about a catharsis, then it makes sense."

"If a film is derogatory towards women, I won't affiliate myself with it. That is not the reality I would like to put out in the world," he added.
