Arjun Pratap Bajwa, who is a politician as well as an actor and singer. His name has also been linked with actress Sara Ali Khan. Now recently his first film Band of Maharaja has been nominated for Oscar. During a special conversation with Dainik Bhaskar, Arjun shared many things related to Band of Maharaja and his personal life.

Question- How did you get the film Band of Maharaja? What questions did you have in your mind during the narration of the film?

answer- The film Band of Maharaja came to me when I was working as an assistant director with Prabhu Deva sir in Singh Is Billing. During that time I met Girish ji and Puneet ji, who told me the story of a musical film, which required three boys. They told me we want you to play one of these guys. When I came to know that it was a musical film, I was very happy because I was already inclined towards music. But to play this character, I learned many instruments, like dhol, trumpet and drums. My happiness increased further when I came to know that my first film has been nominated for an Oscar. I want this film to win Oscar for India also.

Question- All the characters in this film have their own separate story. Would you like to tell us something about your character?

answer- My character’s name is Guru. The film is based on the story of three boys who live in a bordering village in Punjab, bordering Pakistan. All three of them have seen the atmosphere of war throughout their lives. But then how do they come out of that environment and start their musical journey. The main message of the film is that borders are dividers musical uniters. Look anywhere today, go to Pakistan only. After all, why is there so much hatred spread between Pakistan and India, when the taste of our language, culture and music is all the same. Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan is very much liked in India and Arijit Singh is very much liked in Pakistan. This shows that the border has been created by humans themselves. When we were making the film, Girish sir had already said that this film would go to the Oscars.

Question- How did your interest in music increase?

answer- There was nothing else to do during the lockdown. I was trying new things. During the lockdown, an application came and everyone started dubbing. My mother used to sing an old song ‘Rahne Na Rahe Hum’. One day I just dubbed it and my mother said oh, your voice is very good. From then onwards I entered the world of music. Till now I have done five songs and one more song is coming soon. My aim has always been to do something different, so I keep doing new experiments in music.

Question- When your family members came to know that your first film was nominated for an Oscar, how did they react?

answer- My family members are very happy. When he came to know that my film was nominated for Oscar, my father called me and said that you have done something very big. When I heard these things from my family, I felt very happy. Because everyone dreams that one day they will hear from their family that they are proud of them.

Question- Your family is also related to politics. So when the politicians came to know about your film, how did they react?

answer- When the news of Oscar came, my father was in Delhi at that time. When some BJP meetings were going on, he told all the leaders that his son’s film has been nominated for Oscar. Those leaders also expressed happiness and said that they pray that our film also wins the Oscar.

Question- You chose a different path by not making your career in politics. What was the reason behind this?

answer- Our family has always given us complete freedom to do whatever we want in our career. Politics was never imposed on us. However, I myself am also a member of the Zilla Parishad. But I always wanted to do something different and I am very happy that my family also fully supported me.

Question- Have you ever taken training for singing?

answer- I have not taken any training in singing, but there is nothing wrong in taking training. However, I also believe that if you love something with all your heart, you give it your all. I consider myself lucky to have this talent, but I discovered it a little late. If I had understood a little sooner, perhaps I would have benefited more.
