On November 20, a host of celebrities such as
Shah Rukh Khan, Sridevi, Shahid Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao and Radhika Apte among
others descended at the Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee Stadium
in Bambolim (near Panaji) to kick-start The
International Film Festival Of India (IFFI) 2017.
The festival was especially important for
debutants Ishaan Khatter and Malavika Mohanan as their debut film Beyond The
Clouds, directed by Majid Majidi was to premiere at the prestigious event.
However, what if we tell you that despite
being present at IFFI on the day, Shahid couldn’t catch the screening of the
film?
Shahid Kapoor Looks Dapper
Yes, you read that right.
The story goes thus. Ishaan’s debut film was
supposed to be screened at 6.30 pm and
Shahid was scheduled to be part of the do. After all, he has been by his
brother’s side all along. But, strangely enough, the Padmavati actor had booked
a 10.15
pm flight the same day.
To be able to catch the flight on time,
Shahid left the venue much before the screening began. Also, as luck would have
it, the moment the actor reached the airport he was informed that his flight
was delayed.

Furious, he cancelled the flight and returned
to the hotel. Now, this only makes us wonder that why would Shahid cut it so
close if his brother’s film was being screened?
He could have easily taken a late night
flight or returned the next day.
He not only lost out on Beyond The Clouds but
also had to stay back at the hotel and reschedule his flight.
We repeat, sounds
strange. Doesn't it?
