Shraddha Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor on the sets of Haider

Especially after his last few films – Phata Poster Nikhla Hero and R…Rajkumar – didn’t fare too well at the box office, actor Shahid Kapoor has become a stickler for perfection. But unfortunately, that has not gone down too well with Shraddha Kapoor.

Shahid and Shraddha are working together for the first time in Vishal Bhardwaj‘s Haider and a source reveals that the Kashmir schedule for the film was quite awkward and difficult for the two.

It seems Shahid kept giving cues to Shraddha in between scenes, telling her how to emote. He likes giving retakes until he’s satisfied with what he sees on the monitor. While she, on the other hand, prefers to listen to her director rather than her co-star.

This source reveals that the two haven’t yet been able to break the ice, which is a worry for the director of the film.

In fact, Shahid’s dedication to the film is seen in the fact that he’s now even shaved off his hair to fit in with the role he plays.

Fans in Kashmir clicked pictures of him on the sets but he cleverly covered up his bald look with a woollen cap.
