Yes guys, you read that! The Haider actor spoke about the newfound success in his life and said, “It’s never a wrong time for the right thing (smiles). Whenever it comes, its welcome and I am thankful. Let me be very honest, I have just bought a house in Worli, and I need to pay for it, so I am very happy that I got a successful film (laughs).”
Shahid further said, “People see actors differently but we also have the same issues that every other person faces ke, ghar chalana hai aur family ko accha ghar dena hai and acchi life deni hai. So, I felt very relieved that now, hopefully, I will be able to pay for the house that I have bought.”
Meanwhile, on the professional front, Shahid is currently preparing for his upcoming sports drama Jersey. The film is the remake of the Telugu film by the same name and will be directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri.
Original Jersey featured Nani and Shraddha Srinath in lead roles and was the story of Arjun, a late bloomer in cricket, who feels the urge to prove himself to the world and his son. But, his age (36 in the film) poses a huge challenge. The sports drama is an emotional roller-coaster.
