Shahid Kapoor is shinning like a star on the silver screen with his latest release, 'Kabir Singh'. Checkout how Neliima has supported him when people tried to question his character in the film.
Right from his cute dimpled look in Ishq Vishk, his amazing performance in the romantic film, Vivaah and Jab We Met, Shahid Kapoor is one sought after actor in the showbiz world. More so, he has done amazingly well in the recent past years with his stints in Haider, Batti Gul Meter Chalu, Padmaavat and now, Kabir Singh. The way his filmography has shaped is only helping him to create his own niche in the Indian film industry.
While Shahid is getting all the acknowledgement and ovation for his outstanding acting skills in Kabir Singh, there are many who didn’t like his morally controversial character. Though the film has overall managed to impress a major chunk of audience and critics alike, there are some for whom the chauvinistic character didn’t go well.

In a recent interaction with Pinkvilla of late, Neliima Azeem was all-praises for his sons Shahid and Ishaan. She couldn’t stop gushing about how the two have grown. Neliima ji had stated, “My stress was over. I was a single mother and till today he is taking care of Ishaan and me in every way. He is like 'hats off'! Shahid has worked very hard and has had a very challenging journey and the thing about both my boys is that they are very good sons, very honest and clean and extremely vulnerable. Ishaan is more like joyous and has his own energy.”
Lately, on Ishaan's Instagram post celebrating Shahid's movie's success, the doting mother was all praises and sha had commented, "Friends what we need to understand is Kabir Singh is a film which is an A certificate film...All the great films down the ages be it scar face, a street car named desire or even god father or the recent a wolf on wall street would have to be scrapped ..great films with stupendous performances. Our adult audiences are intelligent enough to understand the difference between reel and real life...appreciate the film the narrative the music and the powehouse performance...its rare to see so much a film gives you...love"
She had further gone on to say, “All I can say is, both of them have been sparkling in their own times. Ishaan has been very fortunate that he started with Majid Majidi and then Dharma, with Shashank and Karan with him so, Mashallah, he had a quicker and faster journey and I suppose the younger ones do have it that way while the elder ones do create a little more hard work for themselves. That's the way it’s always been. But both of them are wonderful.” (Checkout: Janhvi Kapoor And Khushi Kapoor's Manali Vacation Will Make You Nostalgic About Your Childhood Days)
Further, sharing about Shahid’s journey and how stressed a mother she was, Neliima Azeem had gone on to share, “My stress was over. I was a single mother and till today he is taking care of Ishaan and me in every way. He is like 'hats off'! Shahid has worked very hard and has had a very challenging journey and the thing about both my boys is that they are very good sons, very honest and clean and extremely vulnerable.

That's the way it’s always been. But both of them are wonderful.”
When kids do well in their professional career, it is their parents who are super-proud of their children. Just like that Neliima ji expressed her happiness on Shahid’s debut film, Ishq Vishk, which was a superhit. She had quipped, “Well, I think it is very simple. I came to Bombay and started working here and received a lot of love and popularity myself. But Shahid took it to another level. He just took it to another level, his first film was a super duper hit, he became a youth icon. He has had a very interesting journey because he started working as a child, then he started taking Shiamak Davar classes and before that he did something in Delhi for a series where he played a 7-year-old child, who was separated from his mother.” (Do Read: Disha Patani And Tiger Shroff Rubbish Breakup Rumours, Can't Stop Blushing On Their Dinner Date)
She had further gone on to add, “He [Shahid] was brilliant at that time, he was 7-year-old. The first time we saw him perform, the entire team was like 'yeh bacha nahi hai yaar'. Kya hai yeh! Kya karta hai yeh'. I saw Shahid growing as a dancer after that and he became an impeccable performer. After that, he just changed our lives. He took our lives forward in Bombay. We started living better, we had all the luxuries and comfort."
Wishing Shahid Kapoor and Neliima Azeem all the happiness in the world!
