Shahid Kapoor, who is now married to Mira Rajput, has a past of dating some big-name actresses from the industry. Speaking of that, the actor once spoke of his experiences and what he learned after dating actresses.
In an old episode of Koffee With Karan, the actor was asked if the same by Karan Johar, to which he said not to date actresses. He said in Hindi, “Bade problem hai, sab ulta seedha chalta hai, samaj mein nahi aata ho kya raha hai life k andar….. (There are too many issues. Everything is topsy-turvy. You have no idea what’s happening in life. You lose perspective. They don’t have time. Actresses, when they’re dating you, their attention is divided between many things. They have their careers, they’re working somewhere, you’re doing something.)”
He added, “Because of that, the relationship doesn’t get the kind of time that it needs. I think it’s more difficult when you’re dating an actress; when an actor is dating an actress… I would want to experience the other side. I’ve dated actresses in the past, and I want to experience the other side. I would want to see what it is like to date someone who is not from the same profession. I think it’ll help me experience something very different, and I want to experience it, and I really haven’t. My last two major relationships have been with people from the same profession, so I want to experience the other side. Maybe it’ll be good.”
