Meanwhile, Shahid Kapoor has been enjoying the success of his last, Kabir Singh, which starred Kiara Advani as his leading lady and turned out to be a blockbuster at the box office.
The movie directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga received backlash from a chunk of society over its alleged misogynistic approach.
However, moving past it all, Shahid was happy with the fact that the movie received appreciation from a large part of the audience.
Regarding whether he witnessed any changes post Kabir Singh‘s success, Shahid shared, “I don’t think I have observed big changes in my life after the release of that film. I feel life is still the same but I do feel that after the success of that film, I will get better opportunities, and people will feel more confident about signing me for their films, because when your films start working at the box-office then suddenly many people gets interested in you. My work has been the same over the past eight to 10 years and ‘Kabir Singh’ is a result of that process. I just want to do good films no matter how much business they do at the box-office, because I really feel there is a need to return the love that I have received.”
