Curious case of Shahid Kapoor

While watching Dil Bole Hadippa; yeah, yeah; the same movie where Harbhajan Singh dresses up like Rani Mukherjee and bats like Virender Sehwag; I realized how most of the movies acted in by Shahid Kapoor are so socially relevant and address to one social cause or other.



While Dil Bole Hadippa addressed the issue of male-female equality and how unfair it is to not let women play in the same team as men; his kismat connection highlighted the relevance of corporate social responsibility and how big corporate are damaging the society and nature in their rat race to earn profits. I remember hearing the words "global warming" somewhere during that movie. Then there is masterpiece Badmash Company, where he teaches us how success achieved by unethical means is short lived and unappreciated. The movie teaches us that it is ok to be stupid rather than unethical. Then there is pathshala questioning the commercialization of education.



His movies Shikhar, Chance pe Dance, Jab We Met teach us how we should follow our heart and we will achieve happiness and success together.I wish he learned some lessons from his movies and achieve happiness and success.
