Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor learnt sign language for a specially-abled fan.
A fan named Karen Grewal from Chicago sent a message to Kapoor, which read: “I am deaf and use American sign language. I am a fan of Arjun Kapoor. I need your help. Whenever I see Arjun Live on Instagram or on his stories when he speaks, I cannot understand. Can you have him create English subtitles so I can read?”
Kapoor then took to Twitter to share a minute-long video, where he is seen using hand gestures to convey his message to the fan.
“Hi Karen, I hope you are doing well. Thank you for your love. I will always try to entertain you, wish you all the success and love, hope to see you soon. Love,” he signed.
This one is for you Karen & I promise to keep your wish in mind more often…lots of love…hope u see this and feel happy. Big ?
Thank you Prita Patil for being so kind on such short notice and I wish you a happy married life. (3/3)— Arjun Kapoor (@arjunk26) August 30, 2018
The 32-year-old actor also captioned the video: “We actors are blessed in more ways than we realise but more so because we have wonderful fans. As much as my fan clubs and fans do not believe it, I am aware and keep track of everything that happens, what they mail me, send me, message me, tweet to me or Instagram post for me.”

One such email caught my attention & I just felt that I had to do something about it…
In the latter part of the video, you’ll see the reason behind my successful attempt at this new language (forgive me if I made any unintentional mistake though) (2/3)— Arjun Kapoor (@arjunk26) August 30, 2018
