Talking more about how fatherhood has changed him, Shahid revealed that before becoming a father, whenever he used to watch films, he always watched it from a child's point of view, but soon after he stepped onto parenthood, he started seeing the things in the point of view of a father. In the same interview, when asked if he is a protective dad, Shahid mentioned:
"Whenever we meet someone who also has a three or four-month-old baby, I go ahead and say, ‘Misha bhaiya ko hello bolo'. So I’m quite crappy like that. Mera abhi se chalu ho gaya hai.”
In an interview with Pinkvilla’s show, Masterclass, Shahid Kapoor was asked if his kids, Misha and Zain have watched any of his films. To this, the actor stated that his wife, Mira, once asked which movie she should make the kids watch, and he replied with 'not a single one'. The actor further revealed that he and Mira then decided their kids would watch his film, Jab We Met.
