Really? Shahid Kapoor got 'high' on coffee for 'Udta Punjab'

New Delhi: He is a bundle of talent, Bollywood has ever seen. Actor Shahid Kapoor has time and again proved his versatility as an actor by going to any lengths for understanding his character portrayal on-screen.

Sasha, who is ready to surprise us yet again in Abhishek Chaubey's 'Udta Punjab' reportedly took coffee help to get that 'high' feeling. According to Indian Express.com, Shahid is a teetotaller, and in the film, he plays this rockstar named Tommy Singh, who indulges in substance abuse. So, to get that character look right, the best Sasha could do was get an addiction to caffeine—he took refuge in coffee.

The report quotes him as saying, "In the absence of alcohol and any kind of substance, what helped me to get the kind of high I needed for my character was coffee. I would drink several cups of coffee before giving those shots".

Smart choice Shahid, coffee is better than any other harmful substance!
