In four weeks, Kabir Singh has multiplied Arjun Reddy's box office collection by four times. Kabir Singh marked a progress of Rs 134 crore in its first week and followed it up with Rs 78 crore in the second. Third week fetched Rs 36 crore for the movie.
Shahid Kapoor takes over from Telugu actor Vijay Deverakonda in the Hindi remake of Arjun Reddy. Talking about his "challenging" experience, Shahid Kapoor told news agency IANS: "Kabir Singh has been an extremely challenging film for me emotionally and physically. Since I had three distinct looks in the film, I had to transform myself to quite an extent."
Directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Kabir Singh marks Shahid Kapoor's second blockbuster after last year's "Padmaavat."
