Shahid Kapoor opens up on his struggles at the beginning of his career!
Wed March 27th, 2024
One of the most well-known performers in Bollywood right now is Shahid Kapoor. Reviews for Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, his most recent release, have been excellent. In addition, Kriti Sanon played a major role in this movie. Regarding his professional background, many have always assumed that since both of his parents were well-known actors, he had easy access to the business. But the actor discussed his difficulties in a recent interview.
Shahid Kapoor said in an interview with Neha Dhupia on her show No Filter Neha that although everyone refers to him as "Pankaj Kapur ka beta," he believes that only superstars have real influence and that character actors are powerless. He went on to say that there would be no enjoyment if someone struggled in a BMW and then started purchasing another one. He asserted that in order to achieve prosperity, one must have gone through train travel and financial hardship.
Showcasing the beginning of his career, he said, “When you start with Shaimak (Davar, choreographer), you have to be in the last line. So, forget being behind a star – you are also behind your contemporaries. You have to earn your right to be in the first row, to be more central as opposed to in the corner and so it’s a lot of work and I just I love that.”
He went on to discuss how, despite their talent, outsiders in the industry do not always obtain opportunities. He further revealed, “I also came from outside, actually, because I came from Delhi to Bombay with my mom, and then I struggled. I didn’t have any channels. Talent is not being given an opportunity as much as it should, and I pride myself in the fact that I am here because of the work that I did and because of the actor that I learned to become, and whatever it is, I give to the craft.”
