    Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor revealed that he has quit smoking for his daughter Misha. Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor appeared on ‘No Filter Neha’, hosted by Bollywood actress Neha Dhupia. During the show, Neha asked him about quitting smoking.

    “I quit smoking a few years ago, after the birth of my daughter Misha. Before that, I used to smoke secretly away from my daughter.”

    He explained, “I quit smoking because I didn’t want to hide and smoke in front of my daughter. That’s the main reason why I decided to quit smoking.”
    The Bollywood superstar shared, “One day, I was hiding and smoking in front of my daughter when suddenly I realized I didn’t want to do this anymore. That was the day I decided to quit smoking.”

    Shahid Kapoor wants wives to fix messed up husbands, Twitter tells him to shut up

    What a delight it is to be a woman!

    Shahid Kapoor is bobbing around in hot waters since yesterday when a clip from an interview he gave to ‘Film Companion’ went viral. In the video, the superstar was asked about his definition of marriage to which the ‘Jab We Met’ actor said:

    “I finally have figured this out that this entire marriage thing is just about one thing you know. It’s that the guy was a mess and the woman came in to fix him. So the rest of this life is going to be a journey of being fixed and becoming a decent person. That pretty much is what life is about.”

    Sorry sir, but did you marry a person or a full-time therapist? We’re scratching our heads because we’re confused.

    Social media did not take well to the misogynist comments, as shown by the comment section under this post which was filled with women schooling the actor by calling him a ‘man child’.

    One user wrote: “So women are marrying projects and not partners?”

    TBH we’re thinking the same thing

    Bollywood, which once made movies like DDLJ and ‘Queen has resorted to cringey storylines which promote such misogynist content is abysmal to witness

    On Twitter, users slammed Kapoor for refusing to abandon his ‘man-child’ mentality, by pointing out that even though the actor was 36 years old (!!!) when he married his wife Mira, who was 21 (!!!!!), he doesn’t need fixing.

    ‘I was shocked by the success of Jab We Met’: Kareena Kapoor

    It has been 16 years since the iconic Bollywood rom-com ‘Jab We Met’ took over our screens and cemented itself as one of the best films to ever come out of India.

    Kareena Kapoor who starred as the naive and bubbly Geet in the film, admitted in an interview with Mirchi that she was completely taken aback by the iconic status the film has been given, since at that time the actor was more focused on her film ‘Tashaan’:

    “I was in this whole zone of getting to size zero, I am working in Tashan, with Akshay (Kumar), Anil (Kapoor) and Saif (Ali Khan).”

    Kapoor also went on to reveal that she had been completely focused on training for her role in ‘Tashaan’, even while she was on the sets of ‘Jab We Met’:

    “I got the main part and it was a Yash Raj film and I was doing action for the first time and whenever I came on the Jab We Met set it would be like ‘Please I need to train because I am going for action training.’ I never thought, the reverse situation actually happened. I had all my bets on Tashan.”

    Shahid Kapoor, who played the introverted Aditya in ‘Jab We Met’ recently shared a clip of himself visiting fans at the cinema when the film had re-released once more.

    Speaking to Pinkvilla, Kapoor admitted that ‘Jab We Met’ was the type of rare film that is made once ever two decades, and was looking forward to doing another romantic film with the director, Imtiaz Ali, again:

    “We re-released Jab We Met recently and a lot of people are now asking me why ain’t I doing a film like this again. I feel, Jab We Met happens once in two decades and it’s not like an everyday film. Most of the films one does in this genre are bad, so one needs to pick up a decent script. In fact, Imtiaz (Ali, director) and I were also chatting to find something in this space again. I want to do something fun and exciting.”
