Don’t you think Arjun Kapoor has always been the perfect brother not only to Anshula but also to his cousin sisters?
From their childhood days to even today, Arjun & his cousin Sonam Kapoor share a close bond.
Recently, during an interview with Siddharth Kannan, the ‘Sardar Ka Grandson’ actor recalls the time in school when he got into an ugly fight with a boxer to save Sonam from getting bullied.
The incident happened when both Arjun & Sonam were teenagers and loved to play basketball. One day when Sonam was playing, she had a bad experience with a few seniors and informed Arjun about it. He then went to that guy to confront him and went back home with a black eye.
Talking about the incident, Arjun said, “Sonam and I were in the same school. I was chubby then. I used to love playing basketball and so did Sonam. One day, it was a typical, cliché scene where seniors came and grabbed the ball from Sonam and announced it was their time to play. Sonam came crying to me. She said, ‘This boy behaved badly with me…’ I asked, ‘Who’s this boy?’ I am not a violent person at all. Neither in my childhood nor now. But I do get angry. I got angry and I went to confront the boy. That boy came and I abused him. He kept staring at me during my verbal diarrhoea of abuse.”
“He then punched me. I went back home with a black eye. Sonam kept saying sorry to me. I remember, he was a part of some national-level boxing. He was a boxer. Maine galat ladke se panga le liya tha Sonam ke chakkar mein (I messed with the wrong guy for Sonam’s sake). I got injured and had to go to the doctor. I got suspended because of my behaviour. I was the instigator of the problem. After that I told Sonam, ‘you take care of yourself in school because I have been defamed very badly. I can’t do this’,” he added.
