Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor, known for his acclaimed performances, recently opened up about a challenging moment in his career while promoting his upcoming film, Deva. In an interview with Raj Shamani, Shahid revealed that he once felt "lesser" before the success of Kabir Singh.

Shahid shared, "Mujhe na aisa feel hua tha, mai specifics mein nahi ghusunga, ki I am lesser (I felt, I won’t go into specifics, that I am lesser)." He explained that while nobody forced him, he was put in a situation that made him feel that way.

"As an artist, as a star, as an individual, mujhe aise situation me dala gaya ki mujhe yeh feel ho ki main kam hun (I was put in such a situation that I felt like I was less)," Shahid said. However, he emphasized that he would never accept such feelings.

Reflecting on the experience, the actor likened it to comparisons in everyday life, stating, "It's like your clothes are better than mine." Despite these challenges, Shahid maintained that it wasn't anybody’s fault and described himself as a "survivor."

He further added, "One thing I have learned about myself in the past 21 years is that I manage to get out of difficult situations." Shahid concluded by advising that staying stuck isn't beneficial, and one must learn to move forward.

Deva, an action thriller, sees Shahid playing a cop alongside Pooja Hegde, Pavail Gulati, Pravessh Rana, and Kubbra Sait. Directed by Rosshan Andrrews and produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur and Umesh KR Bansal, the film is set to release on January 31, 2025.
