Arjun Kapoor who is know for action and was seen in ‘Ishaqzaade’ doing some good action scenes, Arjun is all set to flaunt some dancing moves in his next film ‘Gunday’.

According to sources, the YRF’s forthcoming film has a song sequence in which Arjun will be performing alongside professional dancers from West Bengal and the dedicated actor has learnt some specific moves only for this one particular number.

Revealed the source, "Arjun practiced the dance for a few days to match the technique and energy of these dancers. The song was recently shot at Yash Raj Studios."

Interestingly, this is the first time that this art form will be seen in a Hindi film. A traditional tribal martial dance that has its regional roots in Purulia distric in West Bengal, Purulia Chhau features mask-wearing dancers who perform energetic movements, including stunts, somersaults and acrobatics.

Also starring Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra in lead, ‘Gunday’ is being looked upon as one of the big films of this year. While the story is set in Kolkata, a few portions of the film have already been shot in Mumbai. A long schedule in Kolkata will begin soon, added the source.
