Shahid Kapoor: Ranbir Kapoor and Farhan Akhtar inspired me

Shahid Kapoor is one star who's proved his mettle as an actor however success still eludes him. Though Vishal Bhardwaj's Haider has given him a reason to smile in 2014.

In an interview to Hindustan Times, Shahid mentions how Ranbir Kapoor and Farhan Akhtar have been a source of inspiration to him, "It has been four-five years since I got that recognition. I need to thank a lot of people, especially those whose performances inspired me. Ranbir (Kapoor) was fabulous in Barfi! (2012), and when I saw Bhaag Milkha Bhaag (2013), I thought Farhan (Akhtar) has really established himself as an actor. At an awards show, I just stood looking at him, thinking that acting is more about your choices than your talent."

Apart from Haider, Shahid has also worked with Vishal on Kaminey. And this what he had to say about his favourite filmmaker, "I've an amazing bond with Vishal, and I hope he makes all his films with me. But, I also think every actor should get a chance to work with him."

Or he wants Saif's role in that Farhan production.

Yeah, not sure which role...but I think he had date problems because of ...Mausam? Not sure.. one of those films he was doing then.

I could only find this right now:

Not sure where I heard or read that Shahid was offered ZNMD now. 😆 During Mausam time he had to let go of a few 'good' films.
