Mumbai: Actor Shahid Kapoor, who has delivered 2019s highest-grossing film Kabir Singh, has said that he does not believe in being complacent after success. Rather, he wants to be a part good films no matter how much they collect at the box office.
“I don’t believe in feeling complacent. I feel you should always strive to do better. When you do certain work then it stays in your memory and when you do work over the years, then those memories and experiences become part of your life. I think that’s why the more work you do, the better you can become,” Shahid Kapoor said on the sidelines of an event here, Thursday.
“I think there is a lot to learn and I feel very fortunate that I have been working in this industry for 15-16 years now. I am thankful that people have appreciated my work, but I don’t think I have achieved much. So I want to do many things during the rest of my career. If people are interested in you, you have to enjoy it, but also have to give it your best shot,” Shahid Kapoor added.
The actor doesn’t think that life has turned better for him after Kabir Singh. “I don’t think I have observed big changes in my life after the release of that film. I feel life is still the same but I do feel that after the success of that film, I will get better opportunities,” pointed out Shahid Kapoor.
“I am hopeful people will feel more confident about signing me for their films, because when your films start working at the box-office then suddenly you attract interest. My work has been the same over the past eight to 10 years and Kabir Singh is a result of that process. I just want to do good films no matter how much business they do at the box office, because I really feel there is a need to return the love that I have received,” added Shahid.
The actor also said that he is yet to start work on his next film. “Whenever I do a film, I will make a formal announcement about it,” informed Shahid.
