Kabir Singh is Shahid Kapoor's toughest role till date

    Shahid Kapoor has delivered some hard-hitting and entertaining performances in his career so far in the Indian film industry.

    In his upcoming film Kabir Singh, the actor will be seen in a completely different light. The actor has not only prepped a lot to get into the skin of his character but has also undergone a lot of physical transformation for his role.

    Right from gaining weight to growing a beard, the actor has left no stone unturned to play Kabir Singh. Talking about the challenges, Shahid says, "Kabir Singh has been an extremely challenging film for me emotionally and physically. Since I had three distinct looks in the film, I had to transform myself to quite an extent. I had to smoke cigarettes and grow my beard.  However, since my character demanded it, I did not think twice before doing what my director wanted me to do. I like doing roles that challenge me."
