Shahid Kapoor has made a strong mark for himself in Bollywood with many impressive roles during his tenure as an actor spanning more than two decades. Back in 2018, he was seen essaying the role of Maharawal Ratan Singh in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s historical drama, Padmaavat. The much-appreciated project also starred Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone as leads. Shahid Kapoor, who was seen as Deepika Padukone’s husband in the film, has often expressed his dissatisfaction with his role in the film. Recently, the Farzi actor was asked if he felt short-changed during the filming of Padmaavat.
Did Shahid Kapoor feel short-changed in Padmaavat?
Talking to Mid-Day, Shahid Kapoor openly addressed if he felt short-changed in the Sanjay Leela Bhansali-directorial. Responding with a candid “I did,” the Jersey star added that he does not want to get into the details as he feels everyone did a great job in the movie. However, he admitted that he occasionally does question his decision to be a part of the movie.
Shahid Kapoor was quoted saying, “I don't want to get into the details, because I think everybody was fantastic in that film and everybody did a lovely job. But I did feel at times, ‘why did I do this film?’ I felt like that, yes. But I don't want to blame anybody. Maybe I didn't have perspective at that time.”
