Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor celebrated his 43rd birthday on February 25, with his wife Mira Kapoor taking to Instagram to extend heartfelt wishes to her beloved spouse. In a post brimming with affection, Mira shared a charming selfie of the couple, their smiles radiating pure joy, alongside a snapshot capturing the stunning beauty of the sun and moon. Her poetic caption read, “Happy Birthday to my sun & moon. Beautiful Piscean Sun and the full Virgo Moon. The universe shines on you.”
Shahid Kapoor’s matrimony with Mira has been one of the much-admired relationships in the Bollywood fraternity. Despite their age difference of 13 years, the couple tied the knot in a private ceremony in 2015, embracing marital bliss. Over the years, their union has been blossomed by the arrival of two children; they became proud parents to their daughter Misha in 2016 and their son Zain in 2018. Kapoor, a doting father and husband, often shares glimpses from his family life, which are always met with adoration from his fans.
Not just a family man, Shahid Kapoor has continued to enchant audiences with his work on screen. He was recently spotted in the thought-provoking film ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’. Crafted by newcomers Amit Joshi and Aradhana Sah, the narrative unfurls as Shahid’s character grapples with feelings for a robot portrayed by Kriti Sanon. Though the movie received a spectrum of reviews, the casting of veteran Bollywood icons Dharmendra and Dimple Kapadia has certainly added a poignant touch.
Excitement is mounting as Shahid Kapoor is set to appear in the high-octane thriller ‘Deva’. Featuring Pooja Hegde as the female lead, the film promises action and suspense in equal measure. Steering the project is director Rosshan Andrrews, with his prominent works in Malayalam cinema. The production of the movie is jointly undertaken by Siddharth Roy Kapur and Zee Studios, with a planned release aimed for the Dussehra festival in 2024.
The completion of the first schedule of this much-anticipated movie was celebrated in December, as glimpsed on the Roy Kapur Films’ X (formerly Twitter) profile. They shared a distinctive commemoration, a gun-shaped cake, alongside their wrap-up announcement, stirring further anticipation for ‘Deva’.
On another professional front, Shahid Kapoor will reprise his role in the hoodwink-centric web series ‘Farzi’. The gripping narrative, directed by the renowned duo Raj and DK, follows the story of Sunny, a minor fraudster portrayed by Kapoor. As Sunny delves deeper into his deceptive world, he inadvertently attracts the attention of a fierce task force officer, played by Vijay Sethupathi. Tasked with eliminating national threats, Sethupathi’s character is determined to capture Sunny. The series also stars the talented Raashii Khanna, Kay Kay Menon, Bhuvan Arora, and Regina Cassandra.
Shahid Kapoor’s diverse roles and script choices have continued to demonstrate his growth and versatility as an actor. Even as he navigates the responsibilities of his personal life, his career shows no signs of slowing down. His fans remain eagerly-awaiting the release of ‘Deva’ and the unfolding of the next chapter in ‘Farzi’, and his birthday is just another milestone to celebrate his achievements and look forward to the promise of more stirring performances.
