Recently, the actor went shopping and was unrecognised. 

When Shahid Kapoor was in Srinagar, Kashmir shooting for his film Haider, he went out shopping without security, we hear. How, you ask? Well, as you might already know, Shahid is sporting a new look for the film. The R…Rajkumar actor had shaved his head off and was sporting a beard while shooting in Kashmir. Considering no one had seen him in that look, he went out shopping. He bought pashmina shawls for the women in his family and even picked gifts for close ones. A spokesperson from Haider’s production house told the daily, “As no one had seen him like that before, there was no chance of him being recognised.”

A source was quoted by a daily, “Shahid has three looks in the film, one with his regular hairdo, the second with a crew-cut and another with his head completely shaved, which was a requirement only for a day. It was after shaving his head that he took to the roads without any security. In fact, the guards who were provided by the officials remarked that he looked like a Kashmiri in that look. He picked up gifts for his family from one of the stores in the vicinity where he was staying.”

Shahid’s mother Neelima Azim said, “He keeps getting me gifts and this time he got me a shawl from Kashmir, which I love.”

Well, it’s great that Shahid could go shopping in Kashmir incognito courtesy his new look. However, we also heard that he went unrecognised while flying to Goa from Mumbai airport. This certainly makes us wonder if the Haider actor is not as popular as Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh.
