I have visited numerous cities around the globe, but Mumbai is one city that comes nowhere close to anything else. It’s a city that keeps testing you to experiment, fail, and come back again. Mumbai is in my DNA—it’s where I have played cricket in every alley, kicked a ball around every bend, and ridden its crowded roads on a cycle.

Kapoor initially revealed his new venture in the business world on his birthday last year to the delight of his fans. With the announcement came a sentimental promotional clip of himself walking through Mumbai, remembering his earliest fashion moments. In the movie, he looks back on his long-standing passion for sneakers, relating a moving anecdote:

I adore sneakers. I remember my first pair, it was black with a zip. I loved them so much that I did not wear them for months. Each day after school, I would open the box just to look at them. They were my most valued possession.

The ARKS launch also features Kapoor’s first sneaker design, a testament to his own development in fashion. He highlighted that it was not merely about being stylish; comfort had to be at the forefront:

“For me, it wasn’t just about being stylish—it had to feel just right. ARKS is a reflection of my own personal style and journey. When you look at the collection, you’ll see me in every aspect.”
