The actor is growing his beard for his father Pankaj Kapoor’s directorial venture “Mausam”.

“Dad is being very kind to me for ‘Mausam’. For now, he has just said - ‘Grow your beard and promote ‘Badmaash Company’. So I am just following his advice,” he said.

After the release of “Badmaash Company”, in which he plays a young conman, Shahid will be heading to Scotland to shoot “Mausam”, in which he will be seen with Sonam Kapoor.

Shilpa Shetty hogs at Wasabi

Diet and fitness conscious Shilpa Shetty hogged so much at Japanese restaurant Wasabi that she ended up loosening her trademark belt that she wears to keep her waistline in check.

“Ah! Had the most amazing meal. Love Wasabi at the Taj. Definitely the best Japanese food in India. Had to loosen my belt, ate so much! 45 minutes cardio tomorrow!” Shilpa posted on her Twitter page Tuesday.

Wasabi, which is on the first floor of the Taj Mahal Palace in Mumbai, was among the many places which were gutted down during the 60-hour terror attacks Nov 26-28, 2008.

Ajmal Amir Kasab, the sole survivor of the 10 Pakistani terrorists who attacked Mumbai, was pronounced guilty Monday. The 34-year-old says Kasab must get nothing less than the death penalty.

“Regarding Kasab if he escapes death penalty, then we must abolish capital punishment… For what other crime would you say is worse? Seriously! What is his reason that he was brainwashed too young? There is no excuse for terrorism.

“But got to compliment the system for speeding the process and giving Kasab more than a fair trial despite all proof and evidence,” wrote Shilpa.
