Considering the success of Arjun Reddy, it is certainly not going to be easy to make Kabir Singh a success. Speaking about the remake earlier Shahid said, "Shahid said the makers of Kabir Singh tried to retain the essence of Arjun Reddy but also came up with something new. He said: "We have shifted the film to Delhi and Mumbai. We have changed the backdrop. Therefore, my character's family has changed and his upbringing has changed but we have tried to retain the essence and fundamental energy of the character."  Kabir Singh aka Shahid Kapoor Gets All the Love and Luck from Vijay Deverakonda's Arjun Reddy.
