Shahid is keeping Instagram followers posted about his Big Apple moment. However, his latest post with Misha caught our attention. On Friday, Shahid Instagrammed a Boomerang video with Misha. In the clip, Misha, who is cradled in Shahid's arms, plays with his shades while the actor's expressions... (You need to watch the video for that). "Breakfast sugar rush," Shahid, 36, captioned his post.
