Shahid Kapoor opens up about why he didn’t talk of the ‘Kabir Singh’ controversy until now

Shahid Kapoor has been getting a lot of accolades from people all over the world for his brilliant performance in ‘Kabir Singh’. The film has broken all records and turned out to become the highest grossing film of this year. The character of ‘Kabir Singh’ is being loved by all and sundry and it was the biggest compliment that any actor could get ever. However, there was some unwarranted criticism for the film as well. Shahid Kapoor spoke up about why he didn’t come out and defend the film at that time.

Talking to Bollywood Hungama, Shahid said, “Maybe the way Kabir loves Preeti, is the way people love this film. Something about the film has made that connect with people.” Shahid goes on to say in his interview that he didn’t promote the film after the release of the film. That’s why he never needed to come in front and defend the criticism.

Well, success is surely a great way to shut out the naysayers. It’s been a month since Shahid Kapoor’s Midas touch to ‘Kabir Singh’ got the cash registers ringing at the box-office. Despite other films coming in the following weeks, the movie kept on doing well at the box-office.

‘Kabir Singh’ has had a larger than life impact on the audiences and it stands tall even after a month of its release. The film achieved a great feat since it released on a non-holiday week with footfalls increasing in an astonishing fashion.
