EXCLUSIVE: Shahid Kapoor shares his thoughts on being labelled as a “Chocolate Boy”; says, “I felt extremely bad”
The actor, who transitioned from his early days as a romantic hero to exploring darker and edgier roles, underscored the necessity of steering clear from the comfort of cliches in order to sustain long-term success in the dynamic landscape of Indian cinema. Shahid said, “When I did Ishq Vishq, the word that was associated with me was ‘chocolate boy.’ I felt extremely bad, I wondered what did that even mean, ye chocolate boy hota kya hai? I am an artiste, I want to express, I am not here only for visual gratification. Looking good, dressing well, etc are just one layer, then you have to dig deep and I started doing just that. I completely changed myself, I didn’t want to be clean shaven and do the same thing. That became exciting for me.”
