Shahid Kapoor has not signed any movie after Padmavati, currently in production, and the actor says he isn’t worried about not being seen on screen.

“I have not signed anything after Padmavati and it isn’t a thing to worry about. You should only worry when you are not doing a good film,” said Kapoor. “It’s ok to wait and do good movies. I want to be associated with films that have good content and are entertaining at the same time.”

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s period drama Padmavati also features Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh.

“I am not supposed to talk much about the film. All I can say is it’s an amazing cast and it is going to be a spectacular visual experience. I am having an amazing time on it. Wait for it, it’s coming in November,” said Kapoor.

However, rumours are abound that Bhansali has cast him in his next film, Tuesdays and Fridays, a light-hearted romantic comedy.

“I read about it. But I haven’t signed anything after Padmavati. So wait for an [official] announcement.”

Kapoor’s last film was Vishal Bhardwaj’s Rangoon that did not do well at the box office. The actor says he is disheartened with the response to the film but at the same time is hopeful to bounce back with his frequent collaborator Bhardwaj.

Rangoon as a film had many energies and many people. I can’t take ownership of the film. I am happy my part was appreciated but I am sad for the film not doing well,” said Kapoor.
