Jab We Met actor Shahid Kapoor is on cloud 9 since the release of his much appreciated flick Kabir Singh. Kabir Singh starred Kiara Advani opposite Shahid as the female lead and the on screen couple garnered all the attention and box office numbers.
As Kabir Singh garnered so much attention, everyone is eager about Shahid Kapoor’s next now. As there is no news about Shahid signing anything till now, we all feel that Shahid is taking all his time to jump on another project. Maybe the actor is full on concerned about the balance in between commercial cinema and good content.
Just a few time ago, Shahid was offered Nikkhil Advani’s production venture but had to opt out because of remuneration issues. He has now been signed on for the Jersey remake, which rolls out in November this year.
But apart from these two films, Shahid was also discussing another project with Ram Madhvani – where he is supposed to play a biker and might also share screen space with brother Ishaan Khatter. But a source tells us, “There’s a lot of back and forth happening on that film. Both Ram and Shahid are keen on collaborating on the film together as it’s an action packed emotional drama but right now, they are only meeting and trying to alter the script so that it becomes more commercial.”
Well, a source also says, “Shahid has been offered a very high content concept oriented drama by Shekhar Kapur. The basic idea is there and the project is at a very nascent stage. They have been discussing it with each other for a few weeks now. Shahid has loved the idea and is also keen on co-producing the film. Shekhar, on the other hand, is busy with the scripting of the film. It’s not yet known what the film is going to be about, but it’s most likely going to be a strong social drama, but one that will be commercially viable.”
