Arjun Kapoor has been announced as the national brand ambassador of the environmental campaign 'Earth Hour 2014'.
The star of the upcoming flick '2 States' said that being considered a youth icon and influencing people is always good and this is something that is important because he can create an impression in people's minds that can make a change to the world, the country, and to our thought processes that will last a lifetime.
"If a kid gets influenced with something I say or takes a pledge and says that I believe in this, if somebody is getting influenced with what I do, these are the kind of things that I would like to be affiliated with, so I am really grateful to be here. I am not going into the jargon but the numbers and how many people have been affected because at the end of the day I am a citizen of this country. I would like to leave a brighter future for my children and family," the hunky star said.
Earth Hour is a worldwide movement for the planet organised by the World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF) and engages a massive mainstream community on a broad range of environmental issues.
The event is scheduled to be held on March 29, Saturday between 8:30 - 9:30 PM.
