Arjun, who played the role of Pinky Dahiya, a Haryanvi cop in the film, thanked Dibakar for his vision to make him a part of ‘Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar’ and for utilizing his role to wreak havoc in the life of an ambitious Delhi girl, Sandeep, effectively portrayed by Parineeti Chopra.

Thanking the filmmaker, Arjun said, “SAPF will always be a special film in my career. It pushed me to experiment and get out of my comfort zone and I’m glad that it is paying dividends for me. As we all know, Dibakar is a visionary director and he created a world that was raw, unhinged, and highlighted the underbelly of Delhi. I will always be thankful that he saw me to be a part of this world and made me the vehicle of chaos in the film.”

He continued lauding Dibakar, and further said, “There comes a stage in an actor’s life where one has to walk the path less traveled to make a different kind of mark and, for me, SAPF will always be that film. I’m grateful for the love that the film and my character are getting.”

“I was like an apprentice under Dibakar for 3 months before we started shooting and it definitely shows in the film. He has extracted the best out of me and I will be indebted to him for his belief,” said Arjun, who attended several workshops for the preparation of his role in the movie.

Produced, written, and directed by Dibakar, the movie also stars Neena Gupta, Raghuvir Yadav, and Jaideep Ahlawat in pivotal roles.
