Mira Kapoor was spotted along with her family and Shahid Kapoor at the special screening of 'Padmaavat' last night and when interviewed, the proud wife had the nicest things to say not just about the film but about her husband's on-screen presence in the film as well. She said, “I think the film is a homage to the Rajput culture and tradition. I am extremely proud to see Shahid essay that role and do so much justice and more to it. Watching Shahid on-screen has been a visual treat. I really feel, without any biases, that he is the best thing in the film.”

Talking about the film, Shahid said, “I was very nervous because I was the new addition to the team. People used to ask me about the role in the film, but my wife was a huge support for me. She just told me to go out there and express yourself and to believe in yourself. It is an important film. Honestly, it is not the most author-backed role in the film. But, I feel amazing seeing the love for the film.” He added, “It was tough to portray this kind of a character. We saw the film yesterday as a team and we were all emotional. Everybody was very happy after the film. We are super-excited. I was very nervous; I felt like an underdog, but today I am very happy.”

Well, we can't wait to catch it...that too, really really soon now!
