Unbelievable! Shahid Kapoor reveals why it's so unusual living with Mira

Unbelievable! Shahid Kapoor reveals why it's so unusual living with MiraUnbelievable! Shahid Kapoor reveals why it's so unusual living with Mira

"I have been living alone since I was 22, so I always wanted that family atmosphere. I used to feel lonely," says soon-to-be-daddy, Shahid Kapoor

Actor and soon-to-be dad Shahid Kapoor recently celebrated his first wedding anniversary. Understandably, he is no mood to stop gushing about his beautiful wife and an impending parenthood.

Speaking about his new experiences first as a married man and then as a soon-to-be father, Kapoor revealed some very interesting incidences to a leading daily.

On marriage

He said that he has become a completely different person since his marriage and it was indeed the right time for him to settle down.

"There are times when you should be having fun. But there comes a time when you should have stability in your life. Stability is a long-term requirement. Short-term plans and a few days of flying around [for work] are fun, but eventually, you need that. Also, I have been living alone since I was 22, so I always wanted that family atmosphere. I used to feel lonely," he said.

On living with his wife

Kapoor who married Delhi-based Mira Rajput on July 7, last year, is happy to have a partner to share his home with.

"When I used to win an award, of course, my mum (Neelima Azeem) and dad (Pankaj Kapoor) were always around, but I didn’t have anybody with whom I could share my achievements immediately. Things are different with your parents. It’s not that same feeling [that one feels with a spouse]. I would always think, “Who do I share my happiness with?”" he said.

He also raised an interesting point when he revealed that now there is this one person in his life, who is constantly checking on him to know about his well-being.

"There is another thing that I would always feel bad about. Whenever I used to land in any city, I’d never get a message asking me, “Have you reached?” Everybody around me used to get messages from someone or the other, asking, “Have you landed? What is happening there?” When you live with people in the same house, they keep track of your minute-to-minute movement. But that doesn’t happen when you live alone," he said.

He added, "I always used to think, “Yaar, kyun mere se koi yeh poochta nahi hai? (Why does nobody ask me how and where I am?). So, today, I feel happy to have that somebody around me (smiles).

Now, he reportedly gets it every time, "Every other second (laughs). But, on a serious note, it’s a good feeling," he said.

Of course, he did add that he had nothing to hide and his wife Mira is completely aware of that. "If you have nothing to hide, then your freedom is not at stake. I don’t think I have anything to hide," he said.

On parenthood

Kapoor has only recently wrapped the shoot of his upcoming Rangoon starring Kangana Ranaut and Saif Ali Khan and is now planning to take a paternity leave. He will not be signing any new movies till he has spend good enough time with his wife and their new baby.

@mira.kapoor glowing away.

"Yes, Vishal sir’s film is out in February. So, in terms of being seen on the big screen, even if I start a project by the end of this year, I’ll have that movie ready by June or July next year. Anyway, it doesn’t make sense to rush into a new film as you need a gap of five-six months between two movies. I cannot jump from one role to another by just changing my facial hair and clothes. It’s important to try something new in every film," says the gushing daddy-to-be.
