Shahid feels protected when wife Mira is around

Shortly after Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor and wife Mira welcomed their first born, a beautiful baby girl,

the actor opened up about the significance of his beloved wife in his life.

In a recent interview with a leading film Magazine, the 35-year-old actor said he feels protected and safe while Mira is around.

"In many ways I feel protected by Mira. Although she is young, she is self-assured. We talk about many things and she gives me interestingly

different point of views, which I respect," said the 'Shandaar' actor to FIlmfare.

He added, "Of course I am protective about everyone I love. But I feel equally protected. When you have somebody who loves you, around you,

someone who is looking out for your best interests, it makes you feel safer."
