Shahid questions why SRK’s Baazigar and Ranbir’s Sanju was not criticised!

Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor’s recently released movie Kabir Singh has received a lot of love and criticism from the audience as well as the critics. When asked about criticism, he questioned, “sab Kabir Singh ke peeche kyun pade hain?”

shahid questions baazigar and sanju

Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor has experienced a very rocky journey in the industry. The actor, who has faced his fair share of hits and flops, faced a lot of criticism even though his recent movie Kabir Singh was declared a blockbuster at the box-office. Many critics and even celebrities found the movie misogynistic, they even criticised Shahid for doing such a movie, and didn’t shy away from expressing their views about the same on their official social media account. 

The one particular scene that had caught everyone’s attention was where Shahid's character slaps Kiara Advani's character. Recently, during a media interaction at India Today Conclave, when Shahid was asked about the criticism he questioned why SRK was not criticized for killing Shilpa Shetty in Baazigar or why no one talked about Ranbir Kapoor crowning a commode seat to Sonam Kapoor instead of a Mangalsutra in Sanju.

He said, "We promo-ed the film for two months. If someone's bought a ticket, they probably wanted to see something in it. The film is about a flawed character. Preity (Kiara Advani) is a stronger character than Kabir. Kabir doesn't know how to handle himself. Every Kabir needs a Preity in his life. No one brought up Baazigar, when SRK kills Shilpa Shetty. No one said anything about putting a commode seat on Sonam Kapoor's neck in Sanju. Sab Kabir Singh ke peeche kyun pade hain?"

Released in June, Kabir Singh is an official remake of a Telugu movie Arjun Reddy which starred Vijay Deverakonda and Shalini Panday in the lead roles. Directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the movie has become the highest grossing Bollywood movie of 2019.

In Baazigar, Srk was an antihero who ended up dying. There was no happy ending or redemption. Sanju's gf ended up marrying someone else after being treated poorly.

SRK killed Shilpa in Baazigar and he was killed in the end rather than getting a happy ending!!!

Sanju has been criticized for various reasons!!!

Is this even a valid response? If so, you should have shown him not end up with her na. Don’t point fingers at others to justify your choices, two wrongs don’t make a right

Baazigar showed SRK dying than to make him end with Kajol and Sanju was a real life story, you fool. Sanju also did not ended up marrying his that girlfriend. Both movies were not glorifying anything like your Kabir Singh movie did. Itna bhi nahi samjha iss pagal aadmi ko.
