Being a celebrity comes with its own price tag. It’s like they say that a coin has two sides, so at one hand you enjoy all the perks of being a star and on the other hand you are constantly under the media scanner.
Your every move is being followed by the paparazzi. Your fans and followers would do anything to catch just a glimpse of you and so the shutterbugs are always on their toes to keep the viewers updated with all that is going on in your life. But when this media frenzy gets extended to your kids, that’s when the gravity of the situation sinks in.
Shahid Kapoor, who was blessed with a baby boy a few days back, opened up about this paparazzi culture in one of his recent interviews. The actor who also has a daughter Misha, said that he knows his kids will be hounded by the photographers as this comes with his job. The ‘Haider’ actor does his best to keep his kids away from the media glare.

Talking about how he manages all this frenzy Shahid told to PTI, “If I don’t post the pictures of Misha, somebody will click her and that is my reality. I wish I could draw a line… I would have drawn it long back. People should draw a line. Children when they are in natural spaces they should not be made so conscious of themselves. It is part of my job and I know what comes with it. I am doing my best to find comfort with it.”
The actor also said that personally, he isn’t scared of being over-exposed since he is used to it but when it comes to kids, he wants them to grow up in a natural environment.
On the work front, Shahid is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film ‘Batti Gul Meter Chalu‘ that hits the theatres on September 21, 2018.
