Actor Shahid Kapoor, who has mostly played chocolate boy roles (with the possible exception of Kaminey) will be next seen in an action thriller directed by Prabhu Deva titled Namak and Kapoor recently hinted that watching the Salman Khan starrer Dabangg inspired him to take up a role in a massy entertainer.
In a recent interview, Kapoor was quoted saying that he realized that people of his generation had not seen massy flicks, which were quite regular blockbusters in the 80s and 90s and when he saw and enjoyed Dabangg, he understood the appeal of massy cinema and wanted to do one himself, which prompted him to agree for the film.
Namak, which is set against the backdrop of the drug mafia in North India, also stars Rowdy Rathore actress Sonakshi Sinha as the female lead.
