Actor Shahid Kapoor바카라™s last release 바카라˜Jersey바카라™ did badly at the box-office but managed to do well on OTT. The actor finally opened up about the box-office failure.
Actor Shahid Kapoor says the disappointing box office performance of his last release 바카라˜Jersey바카라™ has taught him a lot, especially about the viewing pattern of the audience post the coronavirus pandemic.
Kapoor's cricket drama 바카라˜Jersey바카라™ released theatrically on April 22 after multiple delays due to Covid-19, and even though the actor earned acclaim for his performance as a former cricketer trying to reclaim his past glory for his son, the film had an underwhelming run at the ticket window.
Asked if he was disappointed with the performance of 바카라˜Jersey바카라™, Kapoor said, 바카라œNot at all바카라.
The 바카라˜Kabir Singh바카라™ star, who was attending the IIFA Rocks ceremony here at Yas Island Etihad Arena, said 바카라˜Jersey바카라™ will always be 바카라œclose to my heart바카라.
"'Jersey' received a lot of love. But there's a lot for all of us to learn right now. It's been two years since Covid and we need to understand how the audience feels. It's time for all of us to learn. 'Jersey' will always be close to my heart, it has taught me that anything can happen in life," Shahid said.
바카라˜Jersey바카라™, the Hindi remake of the 2019 Telugu blockbuster of the same name, also starred Mrunal Thakur and Pankaj Kapur.
Directed by Gowtham Tinnanuri, the film was produced by Allu Aravind, Dil Raju and Aman Gill.
Up next, Shahid would be seen in filmmaker Ali Abbas Zafar's untitled action film and Prime Video series 바카라˜Farzi바카라™, helmed by director duo Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK.
At the IIFA awards evening on Saturday, Shahid will give a special tribute to music composer Bappi Lahiri, who passed away in February.
