Shahid Kapoor Calls Kabir Singh The Most Flawed Character He Played As It Earns 200 Crores, Hails Audiences As The Hero

Kabir Singh has set the Bollywood box office ablaze as it crossed the 200 crore mark on Day 13 of its release. The film is special for a lot of reasons and has now become the fastest 200 crores grosser of 2019 by leaving behind Salman Khan's Eid release Bharat and also Vicky Kaushal's Uri: The Surgical Strike. Needless to say, actor Shahid Kapoor is on cloud nine as the film continues its dream run and is the actor's biggest solo release so far. 

Shahid took to Instagram to share an appreciation post for his fans and thanked him for understanding 'the most flawed character he has ever played.' The actor went to say that the Indian cinema audiences have come a long and called his audiences the hero of the story.

The actor in his long post wrote, 'Your love is so overwhelming words will always fall short. Thank you for understanding him forgiving him and loving him with all your heart. We all fall apart. And we all must strive to rise from our faults. To be better. To be wiser. To be kinder. He is flawed. So are we all. You didn’t judge him you experienced him. You understood him. I have never ever felt so thankful. The most flawed character I have ever played. Has become my most loved. Indeed indian cinema and the audience has come a long way. More power to brave choices. More power to you all for your maturity and humanness. You have given me wings to fly. To not only be burdened by the need to be loved to be a star but to have the courage to be hated in equal measure to be an actor. Here’s to cinema mirroring life. To protagonists who don’t have to be restricted by their goodness and can be human and imperfect. There is perfection in imperfection and that is the beauty and the challenge of this human life. Thank you. Again and again. You all are the heroes of this story.'

The film has grossed Rs. 206.43 crores at the box office so far and is expected to beat the lifetime collections of both Bharat and Uri to be the highest grossing film of 2019.
