Arjun Rampal to star with Konkona Sensharma in The Rapist

Arjun Rampal, who is currently shooting for Dhaakad, starring Kangana Ranaut, seems to be having a busy year. The actor has signed a new project that revolves around the serious issue of rape. Titled The Rapist, it will see Arjun opposite Konkona Sensharma, bringing them together for the second time after Venod Mitra’s 2013 independent anthology film Meridian Lines. Konkona’s mother and celebrated Bengali filmmaker Aparna Sen will be directing The Rapist. It is believed to be like any other critically acclaimed Aparna Sen project that presents socio-political realities in the most sensible manner.
