It was only recently that Arjun Rampal took the internet by storm as ‘Rudraveer’ the antagonist in ‘Dhaakad’, that follows an international spy who embarks on an action-filled adventure with all guns blazing.
While the film is a woman centric action-thriller headlined by Kangana Ranaut, Arjun stands out as an antagonist who is dangerous, deadly and cool at the same time.

Said Arjun, “It’s always come to me that when I was growing up, I was brought up by a single mom. Everytime a film has come to me that was woman-centric, I’ve always said yes to it, .That’s my way of giving tribute to my mother because I know how much strength she had.”
The actor also praised co-star Kangana Ranaut who he has deep respect and admiration for. He added, “When Deepak came to me with the script of Dhakaad, he told me it’s a woman-centric film and Kangana is the main character. I love Kangana’s work and I’ve always wanted to work with her in a film though we have worked together before. It’s been magnificent just to watch her because I think physically it was an extremely challenging part for anyone. “
The song, She’s on Fire was launched amidst great fanfare with 25 feet life sized cutouts of Arjun Rampal and Kangana Ranaut . The entire city was in attendance to catch a glimpse of the Dhaakad stars.
Arjun Rampal’s heartwarming words for his mother, was also met with massive applause and appreciation.
