'Udta Punjab' Is My Scariest Role: Shahid Kapoor

Shahid Kapoor, who began shooting his upcoming film Udta Punjab, says his character in the movie is toughest so far. Udta Punjab, directed by Abhishek Chaubey, also stars Shahid's former girlfriend Kareena Kapoor Khan and his 'Shaandaar' co-star Alia Bhatt.

"Scariest part I have played yet have no clue how I'm going to get it right. Wish me luck guys," Shahid, 33, posted on Twitter.

It is still unclear whether Shahid and Kareena, 34, will share screen space together or not. The duo last worked together in rom-com Jab We Met in 2007. The movie, written by Chaubey and Sudip Sharma, is said to have three parallel stories.

"Abhishek wasn't looking to cast any stars but after seeing the Haider promos, they probably thought I might agree to do Udta Punjab though I was apologetically told it was nothing like anything I'd done before. That was a lure. As soon as I heard the narration, I told Abhishek that he wasn't going to anyone else and got the biggest hug from Anurag Kashyap," Shahid said about Udta Punjab.
