Two of the actor’s Instagram posts were accompanied by the blockbuster film’s iconic background music as he remembered his character and the movie.

Shahid Kapoor made his Bollywood debut in 2003 with the successful romantic-comedy ‘Ishq Vishk’. Even though he did have successful films in the form of ‘Vivah’, ‘Jab We Met’, ‘Kaminey’, ‘R… Rajkumar’, ‘Haider’, and ‘Padmaavat’, it was the gargantuan success of ‘Kabir Singh’ that changed things for him. As the film was on the verge of turning two years old (it turns exactly two today), his recent Instagram posts were accompanied by the blockbuster film’s iconic background music as he remembered his character and the movie. Have a look at the first one:

The film was the second highest grosser of 2019 after ‘War’. He's now gearing up for his web-series debut. After completing the Goa schedule of Raj-DK’s yet-untitled series in April, Shahid Kapoor returned to Mumbai. The next schedule of the thriller, which was to kick off earlier this month, will now be shot in the city once the restrictions are lifted. With the dates being reworked, it has had a domino effect on the actor’s slate of projects. He intends to kick off the OTT film, 'Operation Cactus', as soon as it’s a wrap on his maiden web series that also features South superstar Vijay Sethupathi.
“The lockdown has played havoc with the dates of actors. Meanwhile, producer Amar Butala’s team is on standby. The pre-production of Operation Cactus is on in full swing, and it will go on floors as soon as the leading man is available,” says a source. The action thriller offers a retelling of the 1988 military operation of the same name that was launched by the Indian government in the Maldives to prevent a coup by 200 Sri Lankan militants against then-President Maumoon Abdul Gayoom. Kapoor will step into the shoes of Brigadier Farukh Bulsara in the movie, which will be helmed by Aditya Nimbalkar. He has previously assisted Vishal Bhardwaj in 'Kaminey' (2009), 'Haider' (2014) and 'Rangoon' (2017).
