# Vishal Bhardwaj Interview on shahid What made Shahid Kapoor the best choice for Hamlet? After Kaminey, we wanted to do another film and one day Shahid jokingly told me that hed even go bald to work with me. I replied saying that if he was serious, Id make Hamlet with him. Men love their hair more than women. And both Saif (Ali Khan) and Shahid loved their long hair. (Smiles) As a filmmaker I like to take actors out of their comfort zones, their vanity. But Shahid didnt go completely bald? He did, and we shot on the streets of Srinagar afterwards, without anyone leaking out the bald look. In Haider you will see him with normal hair, really long hair, the buzz cut and then he turns mad and goes bald. What was Shahids reaction when confronted with his bald image? There was a lot of discussion on the buzz cut. The hairstylist, Shahid and I started at 11 pm, measuring out his hair, wondering how much to cut, and he finally got the look at 3 am. Four hours later, he was on the sets and the response to his new look was so good that when it was time for him to go completely bald, Shahid just went to his hotel room, shaved his head himself and returned to the sets looking super cool.:-):-D
