    • Trivia
      Shahid Kapoor learnt a six-page monologue for the climatic scene where his character ''Haider'' turns mad. He put forth the delivery of that monologue in front of a crowd of 5000 listening. For filming the scene, which was done in 3-4 hours, Shahid Kapoor was made completely bald.

      The film is set in 1995, but two superstar Salman Khan fans do impressions of him from his movies released in the 2000s.

    Haider..... It's a mother-son chemistry that storms the screen.

    Shahid kapoor has hit the bull's eye this time with haider. The ease with which he unveils the character of Hamlet on screen needs an OUT- standing ovation. He has exploited all his talent in the movie and has left no stone unturned. The other eye catching character is the protagonist's mother and I guess no one could have dine it better than Tabu. She has been a brilliant actress and again proves her mettle here. Kay Kay menon and Irrfan Khan are as always superb. Shraddha kapoor is sweet but does not have much to do. Overall, to go or not to go is not a question at all. It's a must watch and undoubtedly the best movie of year 2014 till now.
