In 2019, Shahid Kapoor starred in the Bollywood blockbuster Kabir Singh (2019), a Hindi version of Vijay Deverakonda's Telugu film Arjun Reddy (2017). After failing to marry his sweetheart, Preeti, Kabir Singh, who is a crazy lover, resorts to drugs, alcohol, and becomes a chain smoker. Shahid revealed in a recent interview that playing Kabir Singh, a hardcore smoker, inspired him to quit smoking in real life.
In an interview with BeerBiceps, aka Ranveer Allahbadia, the actor was asked how he maintained his youthful appearance and if it was because of his strict vegetarian diet. Shahid replied saying, “Some changes definitely, but I think eventually it’s all in your soul. It’s in your heart. It’s the emotions that drive you. Like I focus on my children a lot. Because there’s so much pure energy out there and it’s just an unadulterated, raw, beautiful emotion. I feel enriched whenever I spend time with them. It takes me back to the version of me that I loved the most, which was the child version of me, where everything was amazing. I just try and focus on that." Shahid and Mira Rajput have a six-year-old daughter Misha and a three-year-old son Zain.
The Vivah (2006) actor went on to describe his lifestyle, "Physically, I'm pretty disciplined when it comes to sleep now. I used to be a complete insomniac, and I flipped that after I had my kids. Because I decided that I need to run my day according to them because they can't run it according to me. And I'm vegetarian, and I don't drink. I have been a smoker on and off but now for a few years, I haven't smoked. I think Kabir Singh kind of did it for me." He added amid laughs, "I can't. I'm done. I was done."
Shahid is now waiting for his Jersey to be released. The sports drama, which also features his father Pankaj Kapur and Mrunal Thakur, will be released on Friday, April 22.
