Shahid Kapoor breaks silence on his recent remark
Shahid Kapoor, who is gearing up for his next film Deva, has sparked controversy for his remark about “actors being full of themselves”. Well, it didn’t go well with netizens as they speculated that he was targeting other actors. However, today while promoting his film Deva in the national capital, Shahid Kapoor reacted to it and revealed that he did not take a dig at anyone.
Speaking with Hindustan Times, Shahid Kapoor said, “Mujhe ek-do logo ne message kiya aisa soch ke. Main toh honestly naa aise hi baat kar raha tha, socha bhi nahi tha. But if I want to take a dig, it will never be at somebody who is so senior, so established, and who I have so much respect for. Just to clear that out once and for all”
The rumours started after the Kabir Singh actor appeared at a podcast with Raj Shamani. He made a comment about certain actors in the industry who he feels are ‘full of themselves.’ He even said that they enter a room with an over-the-top presence and need to ‘chill.’ This quickly went viral with fans guessing that he took a dig at Kartik Aaryan or Salman Khan.
Coming back to Deva, the trailer shows Shahid as an angry cop avatar and calls himself mafia. The video perfectly blends a whirlwind of emotions, high-octane action sequences, and thrilling chases, making for a perfect theatrical spectacle. Directed by acclaimed Malayalam filmmaker Rosshan Andrrews, ‘Deva’ promises to showcase Pooja Hegde and Pavail Gulati in never-seen-before avatars.
Recently, Shahid also shared BTS clip. The clip, posted on Shahid’s Instagram account, depicts his hard work and dedication as he practices the energetic dance moves along with the background dancers and choreographers. ‘Mere favourite step ko tu kaat raha hai, iski jagah kaat. Iski jagah main karunga ye,” the Kabir Singh actor said in the video while talking to the other dancers.
In Deva, Shahid will be playing a rebellious cop, while Pooja will portray a journalist. Helmed by Rosshan Andrrews and backed by Roy Kapur Films, it also features Kubbra Sait and Pavail Gulati in significant roles.
