Post his debut film in 2015- Ishq Vishk, Shahid Kapoor won accolades not just for his performance but the actor rose to fame for his good looks and chocolate boy image. Post Ishq Vishk, Shahid Kapoor has done a lot of romantic films such as Fida, Vivaah and others, and now in an interview, father and veteran actor Pankaj Kapur got talking about son Shahid Kapoor and how he was sure that he saw the potential in his son way back when people only judged him for his looks.
“Not just because he is my son, but as a colleague and as an actor, I could see the potential in him even 10 years back, when he was only being judged as a good-looking chocolate hero,” Kapur said.
Like any father, Pankaj Kapur is happy with Shahid’s success post Kabir Singh and he is glad that people have finally accepted him as a dramatic actor. “I said 10 years back that he is a dramatic actor and as time will pass, people will see his ability as an actor. And now suddenly people have started recognising -- ‘oh he can do this, he can do that’. When an actor gets an opportunity to do things, only then can he prove his mettle,” shared Pankaj Kapur.
On the work front, post Kabir Singh, Shahid Kapoor will next be seen in the Hindi remake of Jersey opposite Mrunal Thakur and for the same, Shahid Kapoor has stared prepping up for the film by undergoing cricket training since the actor plays the role of a cricketer in the film.
