Arjun Kapoor wants to play detective on screen

New Delhi : Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor wants to play the character of a detective on screens.

He has been watching Byomkesh Bakshi, acclaimed 90s TV series which is being re-telecasted on DD National during lockdown, and claims getting nostalgic everytime he remembers his childhood memories with it.

"I have been watching 'Byomkesh...' on TV again and it is pure nostalgia for me," Arjun said in a statement.

According to the 34-year-old actor, the show is backed by great writing and acting, which makes it a "timeless" watch.

His interest makes him curious to play one such character on screen.

I had always wanted to play a detective who saves the day and saves lives. I got to live my childhood dream by playing an undercover agent and saving the country in 'India's Most Wanted'. I still hope I get to play a detective on-screen one day," he said.
