In a delightful treat to his followers, Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor shared a light-hearted video on his Instagram account, portraying what he describes as his “favourite kind of relative”. The acclaimed ‘Bloody Daddy’ actor is seen in the video mocking a relative’s intrusive comments regarding weight gain. Wearing a simplistic white shirt paired with a black dupatta draped over his head, he humorously titled the post: “My favourite kinda relative.” This amusing impersonation quickly drew attention from fans and followers alike, garnering an array of comments and reactions across social media platforms.
Reacting to the comical skit, Shahid’s brother seemed to be quite entertained, dubbing the portrayal as “Johnny Levering”, in reference to the renowned Indian comedian. The video evidently struck a funny bone among the actor’s fanbase, prompting one to declare, “This side of Shahid is my fav”, and another to express amusement at Shahid’s expressions, accompanied by a string of laughing emojis.
The Internet’s laughter was swiftly followed by excitement, as anticipation builds up for Shahid’s next cinematic venture. He is set to return to the romantic film genre with ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya – An Impossible Love Story’, where he will star alongside the radiant Kriti Sanon. The film also marks the inclusion of Dharmendra, the legendary actor, in its impressive cast. Directed by Amit Joshi and Aradhana Sah and produced under the Maddock Film’s banner by Dinesh Vijan, Jyoti Deshpande, and Laxman Utekar, ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’ is already on the list of eagerly awaited releases, with a scheduled date of February 9.
The production has recently unveiled the title track for the film, showcasing the amazing energy and chemistry between Shahid and Kriti. Expected to be a hit, this title track follows the trail of their prior successful singles ‘Laal Peeli Akhiyaan’ and ‘Akhiyaan Gulaab’. The new song features a unique hook step, which is rapidly becoming popular among fans, who cannot seem to resist its captivating rhythm.
Shifting the focus to Shahid Kapoor’s upcoming work slate, ‘Deva’ is another project the actor is enthusiastically involved in. Starring opposite Pooja Hegde, the team has recently wrapped up the first shooting schedule of the film. Roy Kapur Films, the production house behind ‘Deva’, shared a celebratory update on X (formerly Twitter) with a quirky image of a gun-shaped cake to mark the completion of this first phase with the caption, “Deva first schedule done and dusted.” Helmed by director Rosshan Andrrews, who is well-known for his work in Malayalam cinema, and produced by Sidharth Roy Kapur and Zee Studios, Deva is slated for a theatrical release in 2024 to coincide with the festival of Dussehra.
As Shahid Kapoor continues to enchant his audience with his on-screen presence and his off-screen affability, his latest social media antics have proven that he can evoke laughter as effortlessly as he portrays drama. Fans now eagerly wait to see him bring his charismatic energy back to the silver screen in his upcoming films.
