After making his debut with the film, Ishq Vishq, Shahid Kapoor was instantly given the tag of the 'chocolate boy' of the industry and made every girl Fida over his looks. Time and again, he has proved to be the most talented and celebrated mainstream Bollywood actor. At the time when the debate on nepotism in the industry is roaring high, it is difficult to convince that you are getting work because of your talent and merit, and not just because you are related to someone influential in the industry. Though Ishaan Khatter had entered the industry as Shahid’s brother, with his unconventional debut in the industry and acting skills, he had proved that he is much more than just a star brother and is here to stay!

Years ago, it was Shahid Kapoor, who had begged his mother, Neliima Azeem for a younger brother and when she was blessed with Ishaan Khatter, it was Shahid dancing with joy.

A few weeks ago, Ishaan had posted a throwback childhood picture with Shahid wherein he could be seen siting on the lap of his big brother as he read the newspaper.

Sharing another picture with Shahid from the stage of an award show, Ishaan had written, "Bhai, who has shown me by example the value of perseverance, hard work and patience" atop it.
