Sardar Ka Grandson is to be released digitally 2 days later, i.e. on the 21st of May. Last evening Arjun Kapoor took to his official Instagram handle and said that he did the film for his grandparents. He said that he found the ‘Sardar’ in the movie to be equivalent to her nani (maternal grandparent). He added that his nani was a ‘ferocious woman quite like the ‘Sardaar’ of the movie. The actor further said to understand the story, one should necessarily relate to the emotions of the story and not the characters.
In his Instagram post, Arjun Kapoor wrote, “I have been fortunate enough to get films that have made me tap into my beautiful childhood memories and life experiences. Whether it was a Ki & Ka which was for my mother or now Sardar Ka Grandson for my grandmothers. These are films that have connected to my soul and will forever be my most favourite films”. “I am deeply thankful that in Sardar Ka Grandson I got a chance to be directed by the sensitive and extremely mature, Kaashvie Nair, my first female director, who was also helming her first feature film”. “Kaashvie you have given me a film to cherish forever and be proud of. So thank you from the bottom of my heart. You gave me solid material that connected to me so deeply and instantly, because of the story’s uncanny similarity with grandparents’ lives in various ways“.
He added, “Moreover, the character of the Sardar in the film is very similar to my nani. She was actually a riot when you interacted with her and I could see her in Sardar, every step of the way!”. “I was literally living through various phases, emotion, and mainly some mine, some theirs. So for me, I am happy that through this film, I have lived a bit of their lives and I hope that I have done all four of them. Proud through my earnestness with this film”. He concluded by saying, “Sardar Ka Grandson is now available for all to enjoy on Netflix from today and I hope you will be entertained thoroughly. It is a simple movie with a big heart. And I hope it moves you in the same way it has touched me”. Many of his fans and celebrities dropped lovely comments and wished him luck for the movie.
