Actor
Shahid
Kapoor's
Kashmir
based
drama
Haider
has
crossed
the
Rs.
50
crore
mark
at
the
box
office
and
he
says
good
content
always
find
an
audience.
"We
didn't
know
what
to
expect
from
'Haider',
we
just
knew
it's
a
unique
film
and
we
wanted
to
do
it.
When
it
got
ready,
we
felt
it
was
an
honest
film," Shahid
said.
Haider,
which
marked
director
Vishal
Bhardwaj
and
Shahid's
second
successful
collaboration
after
Kaminey,
collected
over
Rs.
50
core
in
the
first
week.
"We
had
faith,
trust
and
pride
because
it
was
not
an
easy
film
to
make.
It's
been
amazing
so
far.
We
were
waiting
for
the
audiences'
response,
but
we
knew
it's
not
an
out
and
out
entertainer
so
this
kind
of
appreciation
from
the
audience
is
great.
"I
have
always
believed
that
good
content
will
always
find
an
audience.
As
an
actor
you
have
to
take
risks
and
do
a
film
like
'Haider'
and
when
it
works,
you
feel
cool
about
it," he
added.
The
quintessential
Bhardwaj
film
adapted
from
one
of
Shakespeare's
most
powerful
and
influential
tragedies
-
"Hamlet",
was
supported
by
other
powerful
performers
in
the
cast
-
Tabu,
Kay
Kay
Menon,
Irrfan
Khan
and
Shraddha
Kapoor.
The
critics
have
raved
about
Shahid's
performance
in
the
film
and
said
that
he
was
the
show
stealer
in
the
film.
When
asked
which
was
the
best
compliment
he
got
for
his
performance,
he
said,
"A
lot
of
compliments....
Irrfan
saw
the
film
and
he
tweeted
about
it.
Kay
Kay
called
me
and
said
I
didn't
know
you
would
do
so
well.
My
father
said
you
have
done
a
good
job
and
that's
the
biggest
compliment.
"Vishal
said
he
would
not
have
made
the
film
without
me.
All
these
things
make
you
feel
special,"
said
Shahid
who
has
tasted
success
after
a
long
time.
