| Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapoor: 'Just friends'

Shahid Kapoor's been in the headlines for his alleged relationship with Priyanka Chopra, but the actor only has work on his mind. In an interview with Times of India, Shahid says he's been completely silent "simply because I feel work is all I should talk about."
The actor, who's next release is the much-talked about Kaminey, directed by Vishal Bharadwaj, also has a number of high profile films in the making, including Ken Ghosh's Yahoo, a special appearance in Ahmad Khan's Paathshaala and Yash Chopra's Hadippa with Rani Mukerji. "When I'm finished with these projects, I will start work on Parmeet Sethi's next for Yash Chopra again with Anoushka Sharma," said Shahid.
When asked to respond to reports that he interferes on film sets, Shahid said "Listen films are my raison de etre. On a set I am like a wired animal. I keep asking my director - can I come from the left or should I come to the right? Should I wear my shirt out or does it look better tucked in? Now if someone is going to report all this and equate my work queries as 'insecurities or interference'... then what I am to say?''

Currently this 28-year-old star is on edge because his next release Kaminey comes with sky-high expectations. "Yup, Vishal Bharadwaj says my role is going to definitely surprise the audience. It is a hugely challenging role, very different from Jab We Met, and though JWM is the reason why Vishal signed me for Kaminey - both roles are poles apart."
Kaminey also brings with it the Priyanka Chopra romance angle; it is being extensively reported that the two lead stars of the film are dating each other. "I'm not left with much of a choice, am I?" asked Shahid. "I'm linked to all my co-stars. With Kismat Konnection it was Vidya Balan, now with Kaminey it is Priyanka." He smiled and added, "Priyanka and I are good friends. However, people have been jumping the gun. If we take our relationship further, I may talk about it; but people are in a rush to link us together. I will not lie or hide a relationship but I will not stand on the rooftop and announce it either.''
