When Shahid was asked about whether he would like to play Virat Kohli or Rohit Sharma in their biopics, he funnily said that Virat and Rohit would want to be willing to have him play them in the first place. Then he said, "The 2 people you are naming, I'm a big fan of theirs. Both Rohit and Virat. Actually, I am a huge cricket fan. I love watching cricket. I watch a lot of cricket. Sometimes, mereko ghar pe bolte hai, 'kuch toh aur kar le, baith ke cricket dekhta hai' (Sometimes, I'm told at home, 'Do something. You just sit and watch cricket'. I just love watching cricket. Main test match bhi dekh sakta hoon, one day, t20 I can watch (I can watch test matches as well as one day internationals and t20s). There is a lot to learn from sport I feel. There is a lot to learn. It's so pure. And the way that they go and put themselves out there everyday is amazing. So it's a privilege to play either of their biopics but really, they would maybe want somebody who's much younger because they need to show the younger time in their life and all that, so I don't know."
Shahid and his fan enjoyed an interesting conversation post the answer. The fan told that Shahid looked like Virat to which Shahid Kapoor jokingly said that since Virat is younger than him, it should be said the other way around. He later thanked his fan, called Virat a good looking man and admitted being his (Virat's) huge fan as well.
