Shahid Kapoor claims his blockbuster 'Kabir Singh' was a 'dysfunctional love story'

Actor Shahid Kapoor defended his 2019 blockbuster 'Kabir Singh' in a recent interview.


Speaking with Mid-Day, Shahid explained that people who were criticising the film were not ready to believe that there were people out there who in fact liked the film.


‘With Kabir Singh’s release, so many people refusing to accept that people are liking the film. I was like ‘Arre bhai, logo ko achi lag rahi hai. Tum log baithe ho apni chair ke upar, how dare you like the film (People are liking the film. You guys are sitting on your pedestal and asking how dare you like the film?)’

I was like, how dare? Logo ko achi lag rahi hai (People are liking it),’ he said.
He further questioned if we have not all messed up in love. ‘


‘Are we all perfect human beings? Everybody deserves a second chance, however rubbish they might be,’ he said.


He added that 'Kabir Singh' was a dysfunctional love story of a simple girl and a very talented, brilliant, aggressive guy.


On the work front, Shahid Kapoor was last seen ‘Bloody Daddy’ which was released on JioCinema on June 9. He has also received appreciation for his role in the web series ‘Farzi’.
