Actor Arjan Bajwa Reminisces ‘Kabir Singh’ Memories as Film Completes 6 Years
On its sixth anniversary, Arjan Bajwa reflects on Kabir Singh as a landmark in his career—recalling on‑set camaraderie with Shahid Kapoor, the film’s enduring popularity through memes and reels, and hopes of reuniting with director Sandeep Reddy Vanga.
Actor Arjan Bajwa, who has played a significant role in Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s popular film Kabir Singh, shares his memories from the shooting. ”I had an absolutely fantastic time shooting for Kabir Singh. I must mention that it is a landmark film in my filmography. The entire shoot had an amazing vibe and we all felt that the film was going to work—and it did, becoming a massive blockbuster. Shahid and I knew each other from before but had never worked together. During the shooting of the film, we developed a great camaraderie, he’s a fantastic actor and a great guy. Working with Sandeep Reddy Vanga was also a wonderful experience; we became friends after the film. The film had amazing music, strong characters, and it feels great to be part of a story that people continue to watch and talk about even today.”
Interestingly the film is still very popular, especially on social media. There are so many reels using scenes and dialogues from the film. The film still trends on social media. On this Arjan adds, ”It’s a wonderful feeling to see that even after so many years, people are still making reels and memes from the film. One of the scenes where we fight like children is often turned into a meme, and that’s just one example. Many dialogues and scenes from the film continue to resonate. It shows how deeply the film connected with people, and I feel lucky to have been part of something so impactful.”
The film also faced a lot of controversy after its release. There were reviews and social media reactions which generated doubts on whether the film would succeed or not. Arjan shares his opinion on this as well. ”Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. We live in a world where freedom of speech and expression is very important. So, if some people didn’t like the film or had issues with it, that’s absolutely their right. But looking at the bigger picture, the amount of love the film received from audiences was overwhelming. It did phenomenal business at the box office, and touched a chord with millions of people that's what stands out the most for me.”
On reuniting with director Sandeep Reddy Vanga Arjan says,”Working with Sandeep was an absolute pleasure. We’ve stayed in touch, and I meet him often. I’ve expressed my desire to work with him again, and hopefully, we’ll be doing something together soon. Fingers crossed!”
