During one of the promotional events, Shahid and Kriti were seen interacting with college-going students. One of the students asked for advice as he wished to pursue acting as career. Kriti advised the fan never to fall short on hard work in her response. Meanwhile, Shahid’s response, although slightly brusque, garnered attention for its well-considered perspective.
Shahid was quoted saying, “I think you are in a phase where you are discovering something that you are infatuated by or that you really really enjoy. You love that but are you good enough for that? You have to work very hard to answer that question. Because it is very easy to see and say I am better than this. Learn to work very very hard. Be respectful towards others’ work. The energy you put out in the universe if you are highly critical comes back to you. If you are forgiving and kind then the universe gives that back to you. So be forgiving, be kind, and work very hard on yourself.”

Many internet users resonated with Shahid’s advice and commended him for offering the fan a clear understanding of reality. However, some suggested that the same message could have been delivered in a more relaxed manner.
While one netizen commented as, “One of the things I like about Shahid, apart from his brilliant acting of course, is his unabashed honesty”, another internet user penned, “Still, he could’ve gone a litttttle easy on the kid. Say it a lil more softly, no need to grill him & make him feel stupid.”
Meanwhile, ‘Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya’ also features Dharmendra and Dimple Kapadia in key roles.
