He
might
be
one
of
the
most
sought
after
actors
in
Bollywood
today
but
life
wasn't
as
easy
for
Shahid
Kapoor
always.
Shahid
reveals
that
7-8
years
back
when
life
was
very
tough
for
him
while
he
was
trying
to
establish
himself
in
the
industry.
A
lot
of
things
inspiration
from
Shahid's
personal
life
has
been
drawn
for
the
Ken
Ghosh
directed
movie
Chance
Pe
Dance.
It
a
recent
promotional
event
for
Chance
Pe
Dance
Shahid
said
'I
remember
the
times
when
I
used
to
drive
this
Maruti
800
car.
In
fact
I
couldn't
afford
even
this
but
then
it
would
have
been
very
embarrassing
to
report
for
an
audition
or
meet
a
producer
by
travelling
in
an
auto
rickshaw,
so
I
had
to
somehow
own
and
maintain
it.'
He
added
'Sometimes
I
would
be
short
of
petrol
and
didn't
have
even
have
Rs.
100
spare
with
me
to
buy
more
fuel,
so
I
used
to
hitch
a
ride
with
a
friend.
In
fact
I
have
been
caught
in
a
situation
where
I
ate
street
food
to
save
some
money.
No,
I
am
not
trying
to
glamorise
or
romanticize
the
entire
struggle
part
but
something
like
this
a
part
and
parcel
of
the
entertainment
industry.'
Chance
Pe
Dance
hits
the
theatres
this
January
will
be
Shahid'
Kapoor's
first
film
in
2010
and
may
reveal
a
lot
more
about
his
struggling
days.
This
will
also
be
Shahid's
third
movie
with
Ken
Ghosh
after
Fida
and
Ishq
Vishk
which
incidentally
was
Shahi'd
debut
movie.
Genelia
D'Souza

be

opposite
Shahid
Kapoor
in
the
movie.
