Shahid Kapoor: An actor prepared for excellence

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,October 08 2014]

From a skinny cute chocolate boy in Ishq Vishk to a weighty' actor par excellence in Haider' Shahid Kapoor's eleven year old journey in Bollywood is a script that no star can reject and a dream every actor will caress.

Rejected at the age of twenty for being skinny and looking like teenager turning fifteen for Ishq Vishq' initially (he bagged the role after a couple of years when he changed his looks), nobody would have imagined the actor will be hailed by one of the most fine names in acting Irrfan Khan raving for Shahid's mesmerizing performance in his latest Haider'.

Irrfan Khan tweeted @shahidkapoor in Haider doesn't emerge as an actor he rather erupts with tremendous force. A new chapter begins from here onwards.

Who has imagined a shy, less confident background dancer in Shiamak Dawar's dance troupe who draped a cloth around Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Taal' with sheer determination, commitment and hard work will make the world stand up and notice his grand transformation.

Tagged and criticized initially during his Ishq Vishq debut by some for copying SRK mannerisms, Shahid Kapoor has really grown as an actor having multiple shades and versatility leaving his more popular seniors still repeating themselves to maintain their position.

Even after facing tough competition from biggie like Bang Bang' starring Hrithik and Katrina Shahid Kapoor Haider' remained stable and showed jump in its holiday weekend while Bang Bang' witnessed drop day by day..

Haider has netted a total collection of 31.81cr in 5days. Showing continuous jump from Thursday to Sunday.

Here is the break up

First day Thursday October 02 2014 - 6.14cr

Second day Friday October 03 2014 - 6.93cr

(14% jump in Gujarat, Punjab, CP, CI, Rajasthan as well as in the East and some mass regions).

Third Day Saturday October 04 2014 - 6.38 cr

(Holding well witnessing growth in Mysore and Nizam region. Collecting more than Thursday first day of release which was a national holiday.)

Fourth Day Sunday October 05 - 7.33 crore

(16% jump from opening day Thursday) Fifth Day Monday October 06 - 5.03cr on Monday.

Total in five days 31.81cr (cost 38 crores)

A true actor like Shahid is beyond box office cliché demand his versatility to fulfill mass and class demands puts him in a rare different league of b-town actors who can perform to the gallery at will.

Shahid excellent dancing skills, great looks and a well toned body makes him an ideal choice for any demands in the script be it massy or classy.

Be it the sensitive 'Aditya' in "Jab We Met" or the two diametric opposite characters of 'Charlie' and 'Guddu' in "Kaminey" , the dancing action hero in R..Rajkumar' or a son torn between his mother's love and Uncles' betrayal in the troubled valleys of Kashmir Shahid Kapoor is an actor prepared for excellence.

Thanks to Vishal Bhardwaj and UTV neck to catch the hidden talent, before Kaminey' Shahid was known either for his romantic boy next door roles or his alleged confirmed and unconfirmed affairs ranging from Kareena Kapoor, Vidya Balan, Amrita Rao, Hrishita Bhatt even tennis ace Sania Mirza, to name a few.

Today Shahid has proved his mettle as an actor once again and strongly made a statement that an actor like him is beyond six pack abs, affairs with co -stars and gossip fodders, Shahid is truly an actor prepared for excellence as Irrfan Khan said A new chapter begins from here onwards' and we agree..
