In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, Shahid revealed, “I was genuinely very stressed about that. Because I’m married, I have two kids and I’m 38 years old, and I’m playing the role of an MBBS student. So I wondered, am I doing something cringe worthy? Like, at this stage, why am I doing it. I genuinely had this conversation with my wife, my manager and my team asking do you think I should do it. I was actually very nervous whether or not it will work. But the good thing was that he (Kabir Singh) has already passed out and is almost going to be a surgeon. Plus the course is of like 5 years, so my character is around 26 years old. So, Kiara’s role is about 20-21 years of age and I’m around 26 so there’s that 5-6 years difference. Also, the fact that I’m not playing a 19-20 year-old-guy helped; he’s almost a surgeon so that made me think that I can pull it off.”

Take a look at the complete segment below.

Kabir Singh releases on June 21 and is the remake of south blockbuster, Arjun Reddy that starred Vijay Deverakonda.
