2 min read
Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Deva, which will see him play the role of a cop who is out on a mission to take revenge from terrorists.
In the podcast Figuring Out, hosted by entrepreneur Raj Shamani, the actor spoke about his journey in the industry and parenthood. He spoke about his idea of parenting and also revealed that he does not want his kids to do his job.
“Ideal parenting, in my view, is not about knowing everything. Every child and situation is unique. It’s about balance between parents, allowing children to make mistakes safely, teaching them values, providing unconditional love, and ensuring they understand that what they have is given by their parents. Their true achievements will come from what they do in life, not from what they were given,” the actor shared.
He then stated, “It feels like parents are two feet providing balance, and without one, there’s a loss of stability. My son feels more secure when I am around, and when I’m not, there’s a sense of insecurity, especially in him.”

I wasn’t inherently that confident. Ideally, I wouldn’t want them to do my job, picture mein mat aana yaar. Kuch aur karo, Bohot up and down hota hai yaar, bohot rough hai. (Don’t get into acting. Do something else. There are many ups and downs, it’s very rough) If they want to, it’s their choice, but I would be like choose something simple, this is too complex.”
