Star credits Dibakar Banerjee for latest performance

ollywood star Arjun Kapoor on Wednesday credited ‘Sandeep
Aur Pinky Faraar’ director Dibakar Banerjee for guiding him
Band extracting the critically acclaimed performance from him in
the action-thriller. The ‘Tevar’ actor has been received heaps of praises
for his character Pinky Dahiya in the Parineeti Chopra co-starrer. In the
movie, the ‘Ishaqzaade’ star essays the role of a corrupt cop and peo-
ple are saying it’s his best performance to date. The actor underwent a
gruelling prep process with his director for over three months before he
shot for the film and Arjun feels this was an invaluable exercise to deliver a knock-out performance
on screen. The ‘2 States’ actor took to Instagram and penned down a lengthy note. He wrote, “Pinky gave
me a chance to challenge myself. Pinky gave me a chance to question my understanding of the beliefs prev-
alent in our country. Pinky gave me a chance to work with a mind that is unlike anyone else’s.”
