The original 'Arjun Reddy' tells the story of Arjun Reddy Deshmukh (Vijay), a high-functioning alcoholic surgeon who has anger management problems. Arjun is on a self-destructive path after the marriage of his girlfriend Preethi Shetty (Shalini); the film focuses on his downfall and subsequent resurgence. Both the film are written and directed by Sandeep Vanga. 'Kabir Singh' has Shahid playing the lead role of this surgeon named 'Dr. Kabir Raj Dev Singh' while Kiara plays his love interest named 'Preethi'.
