New Delhi: Actor Arjun Rampal heard about reports of his alleged brawl at a pub in New Delhi over the weekend, and the Rock On!! actor said it's 'bizarre' as he doesn't remember any such thing happening at the event. "This was bizarre. Because I didn't recall any such incident. I started getting a barrage of calls and messages from friends asking what had happened. The answer is...nothing! Nothing happened," Arjun Rampal, 44, told DNA. Mr Rampal, who is also a popular DJ, was playing at a high-end pub in the Capital on Saturday when the incident allegedly took place, reported news agency PTI. A senior police officer told PTI that Arjun Rampal snatched a camera from a photographer and threw it at the crowd, "hoping that someone will catch it. But it hit a man."

On his part, Mr Rampal denied the reports and told DNA: "I am not prone to violence. I've never raised my hand on anyone in real life. Even in my movies, I avoid overdoing the violence. To raise my voice is an effort, to raise my hand is an ordeal."

"It was a fun gig. We were all having a great time. I don't know where the violence came in," Arjun Rampal added.

The officer also told PTI that the man who was hit by the camera filed a complaint against Mr Rampal but, "We are legally examining it. As of now, no FIR has been registered against the actor."

Last year, Arjun Rampal was seen in Rock On 2 along with Farhan Akhtar and Shraddha Kapoor and Sujoy Ghosh's Kahaani 2: Durga Rani Singh co-starring Vidya Balan. His upcoming film is Daddy, based on the life of gangster-turned-politician Arun Gawli.
