"Vishal is a very dangerous director. Working with him is no less than undertaking dangerous tasks because he brings you out of your comfort zone and asks you to perform stuff that has never been done by an actor in his life or career, " Shahid said.
The two teamed up for the just released dark thriller "Kaminey". Shahid plays a double role in the film. The film also stars Priyanka Chopra.
"It's a challenge for an actor to work with him but at the same time it's very fruitful too... he brings out a new talent in you every time he takes a shot. He is multi-talented and very supportive and I'm very thankful to him, " he said.
