Kapoor may have debuted in films six years before Zafar, but both the actors need to work in more substantial films to make their mark in Bollywood. Although Shahid’s career in film hasn’t progressed consistently, he has proven his critics wrong with exceptional performances in films such as Jab We Met and Kaminey. All eyes are set on him to see how he performs in his upcoming film Haider, which is an adaptation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet.
With films such as Mere Brother Ki Dulhan and London, Paris, New York under his belt, Zafar is yet to make a noticeable impact in Btown.

@Abrar He is an artist and infact for Professional who follow their passion boundaries does not matter. The world is a global village and we should embrace this new change now.
@Rudra: they and also many Indians lack cultural roots!
@ZH: @Abrar: So if a Pakistani is friends with indian he's either not a Pakistani or Pakistani artist? Seems like the criteria for being a principled Pakistani is to have anti indian paranoia at core. Come out of such narrow mindedness.
@Abrar: Ali Zafar is a Lahori artist working in Bollywood and perhaps later in Hollywood!
I believe he is another Adnan Sami in making........in terms of staying in India...
I have stopped seeing Ali Zafar as a 'Pakistani' artist.
