Last November, producers Bhushan Kumar and Amar Butala announced Bull, which will see Shahid Kapoor as a paratrooper. When debutant director Aditya Nimbalkar’s film didn’t go on floors earlier this year as per schedule, B-Town was abuzz with speculation about what caused the delay.


Confirming that the actioner has been deferred for now, the actor says the team doesn’t want to take any chances with the big-ticket project. “It’s a big film, and we have been trying to take it on floors. But we are unable to deal with the logistical issues brought on by the pandemic. We need a more conducive atmosphere to make the film. So, it might take a little more time before it rolls,” says Kapoor.


Bull is reportedly inspired by events from the life of Brigadier Farukh Bulsara, who led Operation Cactus in 1988 in the Maldives. At the time, the Indian Armed Forces had helped the Maldivian Army resist an attempted coup d’etat. With Bull not occupying his date diary, Kapoor jokes that he is “unemployed” at the moment. “I am not shooting anything for the next two months,” states the actor, who had a release in Jersey last week.


Up next, he has Bloody Daddy with Ali Abbas Zafar and Raj-DK’s Farzi, which marks his web debut. The actor, who is exploring different subjects, acknowledges that he feels “doubly motivated” at this stage in life. “The one thing that life teaches you is to change and evolve. Today, I am a lot more invested in my journey as an actor, a son, parent and husband.”
