Shahid Kapoor outraged Shiamak Davar!  Shahid Kapoor |
Shahid as a learner was quite fast in learning steps but his body was not in tune and was definitely mischievous according to Shiamak’s recollection as an aspiring dancer.
Once he threw his chair at Shahid outraged in his mischief, he stated, “Much before Ishq Vishk, 'Pankaj Kapur's son' joined my dance academy (Shiamak Davar Institute of Performing Arts) but had no airs of being so. Initially he was quite strange and his body was thin and bony! However, he caught on with the dance quickly and became rather mischievous too. I remember throwing a chair at him once out of anger, and there was simmering tension between us after that. However, it melted the moment he gave me one of his scared smiles.
However, he admires his discipline and commitment that reflects him to outstand as an actor and dancer in future, he adds, “His metamorphosis has been very strange. We have seen glimpses of his capability in some films but I also feel he needs to be more flexible, especially in his dance. He has the discipline and commitment to give us many more great films. Once after winning a coveted trophy at our summer classes, he had emotionally told me 'I'll never let you down'. He hasn't, as yet. “
He sees himself in him then in any actor and on his account on Shahid as a league's greatest dancer, he divulges, “Yes, he is. To me the league's greatest have been Govinda first and Hrithik/Shahid on the next level. While Hrithik is more graceful, Shahid has commendable technique. Comparatively, I see more of myself in him than in Hrithik. He has solid co-ordination and control but needs to work on stamina. Also, he must adapt to more filmy dances... Shiamak's dances are not always filmy!
