Arjun Rampal is a man with a distinct style of his own, his personality fits into any character well, whether it was in last smashing hit ‘Raajneeti’ or this time hit ‘We Are Family’. Producer, Karan Johar throws light on his role and importance in the movie.

Accompanied by a good opening and fetching 27 crores in its first weekend, the movie has brought smiles for everyone who was a part of it. Before the release of the movie, Karan thought that the presence of Arjun in front of the mighty actress Kajol would lower his metal.

Karan adds further, “During the writing process itself, it was made sure that Arjun had a meaty part. He was never supposed to be a bystander with two females around him. You can see for yourself the kind of wonderful moments that he shares not just with the two women but also his three kids.”

Karan thinks that Arjun justified his presence as Aman as he is a dad in real life and that had a lot of impact on his character.

He adds further, “In fact the reason behind roping him in for the role was that he is a father in real life and hence can understand the sentiments just perfectly right.”

He continues, “His real life personality suited the film since he could get an element of that into the film. Full credit to Arjun for holding it all together despite the presence of Kajol and Kareena! In the past, whether it is Raajneeti, Rock On or Om Shanti Om, he has played an edgy character but this is for the time that he has played a quintessential family man. He has done it all brilliantly and lived up to the expectations.”
