Arjun Rampal talks about 26/11 incident

That his birthdate ‘26/11’ now also happens to be a painful reminder for the city of the terror attacks that rocked the nation in 2008 continues to be something that actor Arjun Rampal’s acutely aware of.
There’s no denying that the date does weigh heavy at the back of Rampal’s mind, but the actor clarifies that it’s the same as every Mumbaiikar.
“The terror attacks were devastating, no matter what the date. Had it happened on any other date, it would still have been an equally tight slap on the face of humanity,” he says. And though the actor admits that ‘moving on’ is hardly easy considering the lives lost, ‘life does go on’!
“For me it’s always going to be a reminder of why we need to respect and treasure humanity. I also pray for the innocent victims who’ve lost their lives. Whether we admit it or not, life’s not been the same. I think the ones left behind, including those who were watching it on their TV sets thousands of miles away, now value what they have more.”
There were rumours of him having a close call that year on the day, but Rampal dismisses it all insisting that it’s something that he’d rather not talk about. “Too much has been lost for anything to be said,” he feels.
Bringing in his birthday on a positive note, Rampal will be in Delhi with family and his set of close friends at his nightclub. It’s been a good year for the actor as he’s seen recent successes at the box office with films like Rajneeti and Housefull.
“I will be planning the weekend in Delhi, before I fly off to Dubai next week,” he reveals about his birthday plans.
Personally, Rampal’s on a high and work-wise too it couldn’t have been better. As for his birthday wish, “Well, I’m just thankful to God for whatever I have been blessed with,” he signs off.
