Shahid Kapoor says he has gone through his share of “intense self destruction” after a heartbreak and one way of overcoming negative emotions for him was to channelise them into his performances.In his latest, “Kabir Singh”, Shahid plays a surgeon who descends into self-destruction after a heartbreak.\u00a0“I’ve had my very intense, self destructive, heartbreak, angsty moments, where I’ve not been in control,” Shahid told DIN.\u00a0Describing “Kabir Singh” as a phase in everyone’s life, the actor says some people are “very explosive about how they’re feeling” while others keep it within.”\u00a0“But that feeling of falling apart, of self destruction for not being able to deal with loss… Only from great love can come great anger. He is a phase in everyone’s life and that how I connected with the character.”
\nShahid says as an actor, he is required to channelise negative emotions, including heartbreak.\u00a0“You have to channelise all kinds of negative emotions and turn them into positive, otherwise they can take you down, heartbreak being one of them. You’ve to learn to channelise these energies, if you can’t, you become Kabir Singh!”\u00a0The “Haider” actor says everybody breaks at some point but it’s one’s call to choose that to “define that moment as your permanent reality.”\u00a0“The worst thing to do is to delve in self pity because it keeps you in a place way longer than you need to be. The first thing I do is to try and run away from it. I don’t like to indulge in self pity, it’s very dangerous.”\u00a0While the 38-year-old has often played dark characters, Kabir Singh is an obviously flawed man, the one with anger and territorial issues.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
