Arjun Kapoor: I'm sure my family will be ok with my choice of partner

Actor Arjun Kapoor says his family has enough faith in him that whenever he chooses to have a partner, she will be the right choice and for the correct reasons. Arjun says though he has never discussed it at home, his family will find happiness in his decision.

'My family has implicit faith in me, that eventually whoever I choose, whenever I choose, I'll choose the right girl for the right reasons. We haven't really discussed this at home but I am fairly certain about my family being respectful to my choice and trusting, believing me, that I am making the right decision,' Arjun told reporters.

'A family is eventually selfless. They want your happiness first. So if I am happy, they will be happy.' The actor, however, believes he is lucky that his family has that much faith in him, which may not be the case with many youngsters across the country.

'I haven't sat down with my family to discuss things beyond a point because they have faith in me. But I think I may be one of the lucky few. Growing up in a city like Mumbai, the mindset of the family is also slightly different.

'In India as a whole, parents have a certain reservation because they would like their children to find the correct partner and stick and stand by the person,' he adds.

The actor was speaking at the trailer launch of his upcoming film 'Half Girlfriend'. The romantic drama is based on the novel of the same name written by Chetan Bhagat and also stars Shraddha Kapoor. The film, directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Ekta Kapoor, is scheduled to release on May 19.
