Shahid Kapoor , after critically much acclaimed HAIDER in now all set to arrive at boxoffice with his latest romantic flick Shaandaar.Expressing his memories of Shaandaar this chocolaty boy has said that it was Alia with whom he wanted to cast with and the reason behind signing Shaandaar.
“My inspiration for ‘Shaandaar’ is Alia.I wanted to work with Alia Bhatt and it was my only opportunity.
Honestly, when we signed the film and were shooting for it, Vikas’s ‘Queen’ hadn’t released, my ‘Haider’ hadn’t released and Alia’s ‘Highway’ was about to release.So the time when we took up this film, we weren’t exciting people.
And the year passed, and the films of all three of us were liked by viewers, so ‘Shaandaar’ became a very big film,
But we never made ‘Shaandaar’ from that (big) point of view.We made it because it’s a really nice, entertaining film and a fresh concept.
Vikas has taken a love story and I don’t think we’ve had a destination wedding film before.So we’ve just gone out there and made the film that it needs to be by just going out there and having fun ” Shahid Said.
