However, going by the early reviews of celebs and fans, Shahid seems to have risen up to the occasion. Calling the film 'brilliant', filmmaker Karan Johar took to social media, to praise the actor. He wrote, "Kabir Singh is about manic, relentless and reckless love and the experience of viewing the film is exactly the same! It’s relentless in its narrative leaves you reckless in emotion and you find yourself Manicly rooting for Kabir’s unabashed love for Preeti! This modern Ode to Devdas leaves you spellbound! It also makes you stand up and applaud the genius of @shahidkapoor’s portrayal of KABIR SINGH! He lives and breathes the character with insanity and abandon! It almost seems like he has pulled every bit of himself to portray the part! Brilliant."
Neha Dhupia said Shahid's performance left her speechless because it was so powerful. "Shahid Kapoor you have left me speechless !!!! I May need a few hours to sit and think and construct my thoughts around how I feel about #kabirsingh ... only because its so bloody good!"
