Shahid recently opened up about fans calling him a perfect choice to play the lead in the Hindi remake of Arjun Reddy.

The actor was quoted as saying, "I never feel I'm perfect for any role. When you have to play a character, you have to be very realistic about it, you have to know your own strengths and weaknesses. Every actor comes with his own strengths and weaknesses.

It was Vijay's first film so that had its own pros and cons. It's my 28th or 29th or 30th film which comes with its own pros and cons. So we are in different places and we've played similar characters.

Yes, Sandeep was somebody who told me that he felt I was right for the character and to me that is the most important thing. The film maker has to believe that the actor can play the part."

He further added, "I don't ever think that I'm perfect for any character but at the same time, I don't think I am wrong for any character. As an actor, I have to try and achieve something and do justice to something that's on paper and bring it alive.

SO I don't like it if I have a pre-conceived notion ki yeh toh main kar lunga because that makes you very complacent and it's over confidence. And I don't like being told that I can't do something because then it becomes something that I have to prove. So I don't think in either direction like that."
