Shahid Kapoor began shooting for Farzi season 2 and shared two back-to-back Instagram stories to confirm the same. In his monochrome photos, Shahid marked his return as ‘Sunny Boy’ for the show that marked his OTT debut.
The first Instagram story saw Shahid Kapoor tease with the script of Farzi season 2. Alongside, he shared four photos of him as the character, with the focus mainly on his free bird tattoo behind the ears. His stubble with beard and moustache, eyes constantly expressing a new emotion ranging from anxiety to hope, summarized the tale of Sunny boy.
The second Instagram story was about the actor’s return with Farzi 2. In fact, he captioned the picture itself as “Farzi 2 day 1… Back at it!!!” In the photo, Shahid reunites with the makers of the series Raj & DK, who he refers to as ‘fakers’ given the title of their show. The recently remarried Raj stands behind DK, while Shahid seems to question the latter, probably in his mimicry voice. The image also teases him in a shimmery kurta, probably hinting at a celebratory take (likely to be an Indian wedding setup).
Exactly a month back, during the Paan Ki Dukaan song launch from his latest release O’Romeo, Shahid Kapoor had confirmed that Farzi 2 will go on floors soon. The actor stated, "Yeh baal maine Farzi 2 ke liye hi katwaaye hain, shooting shuru hone wali hai."
