Shahid Kapoor, whose latest war film 'Rangoon' failed to impress cine goers, will be taking a break from dark and complex roles for the time being. The 36-year-old actor said that he wanted to feature in lighter roles next. Shahid had played two back-to-back serious characters in "Udta Punjab" (2016) and the recently released Vishal Bhardwaj-directed 'Rangoon.' During a question – answer session, one of the Twitter users asked Shahid, "Is it that you prefer dark films more now?" To this the actor replied, "Nope. Not for a while now."
When asked if he believed some good films don't work at the box office, Shahid said, "Good films always do well." He said after completing his prior commitments he would like to do "anything light and fun." About his role in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's magnum opus "Padmavati", he said the best thing about Raja Rawal Ratan Singh's character is that he was, "Noble, heroic, and fearless. Above all a true lover."
