Shahid Kapoor
Shahid Kapoor is fast becoming the heartthrob of current female generation. He has that unique combination of toughness with vulnerability. Recently he was shooting in Bangkok for Parmeet Sethi’s untitled with Anushka Sharma. There he was quite frequently mobbed by female fans and even the shooting was disrupted many times.
Shahid Kapoor popularity shot up after his movies Jab We Met and Kaminey. Now Shahid Kapoor feels that his female fan following is proving to be a major threat. Therefore, the actor has demanded extra bodyguards during all his future shoots.
While Shahid was shooting in Bangkok for Yash Raj Films, a group of Indian girls on a Bangkok beach had demanded that Shahid should completely bare his upper half for them. Being the quite shy guy in personal life Shahid was pretty uncomfortable with this demand. A source reveals, "Shahid has a huge female fan following and is constantly mobbed at various places. At times it becomes too risky for him. Not wanting to cause any further problems, the actor has now asked for extra security."
The source revealed further, "Usually, Shahid also has fans waiting outside his vanity van and they refuse to move till he meets them. This at times hampers the shoot schedule, disturbing not only Shahid but also the film unit. Now, Shahid wants a group of 5-6 bodyguards to be with him on the sets and also whenever he is shooting at an outdoor location where there is a greater risk of fans barging in on the sets."
But Yash Raj Films people deny all this. They say, "We haven’t got extra guards for the shoot. YRF, does have adequate security for all its shoots at all times. Should an artiste ask for additional security, it will most certainly be provided. However, no additional security has been asked for during this shooting schedule."
It seems the truth lies somewhere in between.
