Is Shahid Kapoor cursed?

Did someone cast an evil eye on his career or something? Back in 2009, he was considered by many the next superstar of the industry. Now flash forward four years in, he's one of the most commercially unsuccessful actors in Bollywood. Flop after flop after flop. What's going on? I mean It's not like he's not talented. The guy's a great actor and an excellent dancer, so what went wrong? In an industry where someone as untalented and crappy as Imran Khan can get hit films, why isn't Shahid Kapoor doing the same? Today, his film R Rajkumar came out and now that he finally got a good opening, all the critics are bashing the film which will unfortunately have some effect on the box office collections. Is it his script choice or is it just really bad luck?

And the interesting part is ...He is giving flops but people can't say he was bad in em. He always gets good comments regarding his work ... It's just scripts ...

I have yet to see people not praising him for RR (not talking about critics) ... Those who didn't like the movie are even praising him.

Ha! The most surprising bit from today was that Filmfare guy's tweet. 😆

Shahid is a very good actor, he just has had a bad choice in movies, I just watched R...Rajkumar and I am sad in saying that i thought it was a really bad movie, shahid has reduced himself to this and it's sad to see.

Oh and to answer your question, bad luck.

Because I was watching Review Video today ... Bollywood Hungama one ... There was this old guy ... Praising him ... Saying if it was Salman in the movie, it could have been a blockbuster right this minute (Which is unfair I think in a way), but if people accept Shahid in this avatar ... There's no stopping him ...

I agreed w/ what he said. Public, majority, loved him. But Critics seem to be ruining the fun.

^ Hmm... Curious Case of Sasha. 😆

If he was only doing a movie with ex lover or current lover ... It might have reached 100 cr. 😆

^That's true. And you can't ignore the fact he seems to be in the mood. He is hungry if you see his IVs now.

Ya know? I'm all for him shaving off his hair now. That's going to be a new beginning! 🤣 There!

The critical reactions are expected. Shahid did RR and PPNH to improve his BO standing. Its not a matter of luck...but as per plan.
