A video of actor Arjun Ashokan losing his cool at a YouTuber has been doing the rounds on social media. The actor had arrived at a theatre to watch the first show of his latest film, Melcow Pondicherry, when the incident occurred.
During a media interaction, a YouTuber asked Arjun whether releasing films almost every week was becoming a challenge for him. The question appeared to irritate the actor. He asked which of his films had been released the previous week and expressed his frustration with the tone of questioning. More specifically, he pointed out that there are issues with the way some questions are being framed.
“Which of my films is releasing every week? Which film of mine came out last week? Please frame your questions properly. Shouldn't I try something different? Otherwise, people will get bored and ask me to go home," Arjun Ashokan said.
He added, "Becoming an actor and achieving a career in cinema have always been my dreams. I have never considered this a challenge. It is only when I get challenging characters that I see them as challenges. Honestly, there are some issues with the questions you ask. ‘Are your films releasing every week? Is it challenging?’ Why can't you ask questions properly? Won't we answer them?” The video has received mixed reactions on social media.
Arjun Ashokan recently appeared in Disco, directed by Ullas chemban, which was released last week. The latest release Melcow Pondicherry marks his fifth release this year.
