Actor Shahid Kapoor has been roped in to play the role of Vijay Deverakonda in Arjun Reddy's Hindi remake. Speaking about the film, the Padmavat actor said: “It’s a very different journey. I saw the original film and loved all the performances; so there is a huge responsibility on our shoulders to match up to the standard set by the original version. I fell in love with the characterisation of the lead actor the moment I saw Arjun Reddy. I am quite nervous and excited about it at the same time.”
