Three years later, Shahid was offered the chance to play the lead in his debut Hindi film called ‘Ishq Vishk which was released in 2013. Following the release of the film, Shahid started landing roles in romantic films. His manner of acting was compared to those of Shahrukh Khan who was described as the “King of Romance.’
From 2003 until 2006, nearly all of his films failed on the screen. Following the failure of films such as ‘Dil Maange More and “Vaah! Live Ho Toh Aisi!,’ and ‘Fida’ Shahid was seen as a un film-making success. Shahid returned with two back-to-back successes, ‘Vivah’ and “Jab We Met,” in 2007 and 2006 respectively. Both films garnered him nominations and awards. At the time, Shahid took up robust and more meaty roles to alter his image as the romantic hero.
