In an interview with Firstpost during the promotions of Bloody Daddy, the actor said, “Ishq Vishk was a very sweet and romantic kind of red and this is a very intense kind of red. But that’s I guess how much time it takes for somebody like me who has a boyish personality, it takes some time to enter more manly kind of a character.”
Shahid continued, “So let’s just say I’ve been waiting for a character like this for a very long time and I’m very happy to be accepted in this space. I started very early with films like Kaminey and Haider which are more than a decade-old right; there’s more to me than what you see. If you want to be diverse in your choices, give people different experiences and grow, you need to choose different roles.”
