"Kaminey will change Shahid's entire image. It is going to put him being an hot contender amongst the others. Also working with Vishal Bharadwaj has been amazing."

said the source. Shahid who celebrated his birthday recently, prefers to say that he is 28 years younger than 28 years older.

A friend of Shahid said, "He wants to be that way! Also Shahid feels that playing characters older than your real age can fall flat on screen at times and he does not want to land up doing anything stupid."

Shahid likes to look at things realistically and practically. "Shahid believes there are enough of roles being written where an actor can play his age, " said the friend.
