Shahid Kapoor is a doting father to son Zain and daughter Misha.
Shahid Kapoor might be a talented actor prominently known for taking up unconventional roles, as evident from all his recent hits like Farzi and Bloody Daddy. But when Shahid is not acting, he likes to spend his time with his wife Mira Rajput and kids Zain(3) and Misha(6). With the country celebrating Father’s Day, Shahid Kapoor revealed how he shields his kids from stardom.
In an interview with Hindustan Times, Shahid Kapoor explained, “I cannot keep them away from my fame, but they need to have enough of a life which has nothing to do with this, because they are their own people. They must have their own individual reality. You cannot take away the fact that their father is an actor, they should accept that. They should feel proud of that, we all are proud of each other in the family- me of my mom and dad, my wife and what she does. That’s what family is all about. Instead of focusing all our energies on that one thing about having famous parents- otherwise the children grow up thinking that’s all that matters.”
The Kabir Singh actor also shared how he explained his status quo of a popular actor to Misha, “Earlier, she would ask ‘why do people want your pics daddy?’ I told her ‘I do some work, like how you watch your cartoons, songs, I also do work which people can see. So if they like my work, they want to get a picture with me,” the actor stated.
He further added that while his kids have watched his films like Jab We Met, they still have to wait a long time to appreciate his more recent works. He explained,
“I don’t even know if they recognised me because I look so different in that film(Jab We Met), from what I look now. A lot of my good work, they will have to see at a later stage. I will let my wife Mira decide what they should watch. She is like ‘I don’t know what kind of movies you are doing, there’s always something happening, I can’t show them much.”
Meanwhile, speaking of Bloody Daddy, the trailer witnesses Shahid Kapoor’s suave entrance into the den of villains, his undeniable swag, and his action-packed heroics – the film features Ronit Roy and Sanjay Kapoor as the antagonists on a quest to reclaim their drug shipment from Shahid. The film boasts an impressive ensemble cast including Rajeev Khandelwal, Diana Penty, Sanjay Kapoor, and Ronit Roy. Shahid, as the protagonist, promises a thrilling experience that will keep one on the edge of your seat.
