“When I first started out, I think I was blind to the challenges… I was very thick-skinned, fortunately. I had a lot of dreams and I believed in them—because no one else did, except for mom and Ishaan. Mom always backed me—she’s the wind beneath our wings.

So, when my parents separated, it was a tough journey for her. Being the elder son, I wanted to support her as soon as I could. So I started dancing with Shiamak Davar at 15, soon became a professional dancer and started earning money. In a way, I didn’t really live my teenage years because I was working, but I loved what I did!”

From working as a dancer in ads and films, to then debuting as the boy-next-door in Ishq Vishq at the age of 23, Shahid Kapoor has had quite a remarkable journey.

Playing the ‘chocolate boy’ in many movies at the beginning of his career, over the years, Shahid redefined himself every step of the way in his 20-year-long acting career, with the most recent one being his OTT debut Farzi. He’s established himself as one of the most bankable actors in the industry today.

In this episode, we spoke to Shahid about his married life, being a father, how he disconnects from his glamorous acting world and how spirituality has helped him. Join us as we celebrate the incredible journey Shahid has been on and figure out, ‘How the Hell Did He Do It?’ Tune in now!

- Impact of a blended family on a child
- Learnings over the years
- Spirituality
- Love
- Marriage and Fatherhood
- Dabbling in different genres
- Things we couldn't find on Google
