Shahid Kapoor opens up on his kids watching Jab We Met, reveals he prefers to keep them away from the movies | Hindi Movie News – Times of India

At the trailer launch of his new movie, Shahid said, “I don’t like them seeing me much. So, first day their first question was ‘Why do people come up to you?’ Because they hadn’t seen much of my work. Now, recently they just saw Jab We Met.”
He carried on, “It (the movie) had come out in theatres. So, my mom took them to see it and Mira wanted them to go and see it. She was like ‘This is one film where you are not like hitting people and doing all this intense stuff. It is a family viewing kind of film, so I want them to go and see it’. So, that actually, I think the first film of mine that they saw.”
Earlier, there were reports that after the massive success of Kabir Singh, Shahid had hiked his fee and is now charging almost 40 crores for a project, a rumour that he laughed off.

In a recent interview with a news portal however, Shahid gave his honest take on working for money bit. He said he wishes that sometimes, he too can do a project just for money, because who does not want to get rich quickly. He further went on to say that he has tried doing that in the past, but it hasn’t worked out for him. He also said that money of course is important, however, he is extremely passionate about his craft and that it would be dishonest on his part to work just for money. Shahid credited his parents Pankaj Kapur and Neelima Azeem for inculcating the right values in him, so that he could give his 100% to his career and not be too materialistic.
