2011: Shahid Much?!

It seems that this coming year will be a difficult year for Shahid with the goal that he has set for himself. While this entire year Shahid spent most of his time shooting for his father Pankaj Kapoor's home production Mausam, next year is to bring a lot more to his plate. In this film, Shahid's character will be shown gradually changing from a young man to a more mature, wise and worldly man.

 

Just a few years ago, Shahid projected the role of Aditya in Imtiaz Ali's Jab We Met and the role of the serious businessman garnered Shahid many new fans and loyalties. Later, Shahid worked in Badmaash Company as a street smart man who went from rags to riches and his fans appreciated this avatar just as much.

Even after the varied characters he has portrayed, Shahid has not quite managed to shed his 'chocolate boy' image quite yet. Well, it seems that he's now ready to lose it once and for all by portray more mature and intense roles. Not only that, but he also wants to be considered as a more serious actor now and one of the driving forces in the industry. In fact, in Mausam, the character that Shahid will be portraying will be one of the toughest roles that he's had till date. 

 

It'll be surprising to know that Shahid's father still believes that his son isn't getting the roles that he should be getting. In fact, he also believes that Shahid hasn't been able to prove what he's worthy of till date, even after his numerous hits!

 

Well, Papa Kapoor seems to have created just the role for Shahid to show his worth in Mausam. Apparently, it is quite a once-in-a-lifetime chance for to get such a special role! All things being said, here's hoping this new venture turns out successful for both father and son!
