In the teaser that we saw, we saw how intense and rugged Shahid Kapoor looked. This rugged look is the result of an extreme physical transformation that Shahid underwent for his role. Shahid Kapoor, who is a teetotaller, plays the role of an alcoholic and had to smoke 20 cigarettes a day.
The 38-year-old actor reveals that the part required him to smoke cigarettes, beedis and pretend to snort cocaine for the major portion of the film.
Shahid Kapoor can be seen as a very, very angry young man in the trailer, with a soft spot only for his lady love played by Kiara Advani. The story seems to be exciting, intense and extremely romantic all at the same time.
Kabir Singh promises to evoke a number of emotions in the audience, primary among them a curiosity about what's going to happen as the movie goes along.
Shahid Kapoor launched the trailer of Kabir Singh at a popular multiplex in Andheri, Mumbai. Here ate a few pictures from the trailer launch.
The original blockbuster, Arjun Reddy, starred Vijay Deverakonda and Shalini Pandey in the lead roles. After the teaser dropped online, Vijay took to his Twitter account to appreciate Shahid's look. The film is directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga and produced by Bhushan Kumar, Murad Khetani, Krishan Kumar, and Ashwin Varde. Kabir Singh will hit the big screens on June 21 this year.
