2016 has been a gratifying year for Shahid Kapoor. He won critical acclaim for his performance in Udta Punjab, he signed Padmavati and bagged most awards in the Best Actor category. But above all, the year is very special for Shahid because he and his wife Mira Rajput were blessed with a baby girl.

In an interview recently, when we asked Shahid on how does he look back at 2016, the actor stated, "My strongest memory of 2016 is that it was a very tiring year. There is a lot of work that happened. And for me 2016 will always be the year that I was blessed with Misha. The rest of it has been an ongoing journey. In the last 3-4 years, I have been doing the kind of work I really wanted to do always. And I feel very happy today that work is being recognized and appreciated."

He adds, "I feel very fortunate to have got the films that I have got and for all of them to have turned into good films is overwhelming. Lot of times what you think about a film, it doesn't turn out that way and vice-versa. So I feel I have been lucky and I feel fortunate that people have given their love to it because all of it wasn't conventional. It was experimental and people have been very kind and I just want to give them a cinematic experience every time they enter a movie theatre. That is the effort. I have just started doing that and I hope that I continue to do it."
