 "IIFA 2025: Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan reunite at the ceremony, netizens say 'Jab They Met'")
Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan had a reunion of sorts at the IIFA 2025 in Jaipur. For the IIFA press conference, we also had stars like Madhuri Dixit, Kartik Aaryan, and Kriti Sanon. And yes, filmmaker Karan Johar too.
Jab We Met, starring Kareena Kapoor Khan and Shahid Kapoor, is a cult classic that is cherished by fans even today. Helmed by Imtiaz Ali, the film has all the aspects from comedy to emotions and happening songs.
Shahid Kapoor as Aditya Kashyap to Kareena Kapoor as all-lively Geet won hearts with their acting prowess and unmatchable chemistry. Jab We Met clocked 26 years this year having released on 26 October, 2007. Now, in a recent interview, Kareena Kapoor has shared some titbits from her experience of working in the film.
What Kareena Kapoor said
In an interaction with Mid-Day, Kareena Kapoor revealed that she was not sure of taking up the role of Geet in Jab We Met. She added that she was without work at that point as she was rejecting big films. The actress further said that she had not watched any Imtiaz Ali films by then.
“I was actually without work. I hadn’t worked in a year and a half because I was saying no to big films. I was not getting the kind of film that I wanted. Films weren’t working, so I wanted to take a sabbatical for a year and a half. I think Imtiaz called up Shahid and narrated the film. We didn’t even know Imtiaz because he had just made Socha Na Tha. I hadn’t seen the film, Shahid I think had seen the film,” Kareena said.
