While the director of the film, Sandeep Vanga has already spoken about the Kabir Singh row, the lead actor Shahid Kapoor opened up about the same in his recent interview to Bollywood Hungama. "Who are we to judge characters? Why do we judge characters? That's so hypocritical. When you see people in Hollywood do these things, you say, 'Wow, so brave!' But somebody does it out here; 'How dare you?' Have same standards," he was quoted as saying.
In the same interview, Shahid also revealed that there were times when he felt disrespected as an actor and said, "I always wanted to be known as an actor, who is also a star.
