Bollywood actor Kareena Kapoor Khan, on her show 'What Women Want, says that she was unaware that the 2007 movie Jab We Met would go on to become one of the most memorable and special films in her repertoire. The actor spoke about how unexpected it was for her because she had her bets on the film Tashan, which she was simultaneously shooting for.
In an interaction with brother-actor Ranbir Kapoor, Kareena spoke about Jab We Met and how things rolled out after the film was released. She said, “I was in this whole zone of getting size zero, I am working like in Tashan, with like Akshay (Kumar), Anil (Kapoor) and Saif (Ali Khan).”
She added, “I was like I got the main part and it was a Yash Raj film and I was doing action for the first time and whenever I came on the Jab We Met set it would be like ‘you know please I need to train because I am going for action training.’ I never thought, the reverse situation actually happened, you know I had all my bets on Tashan.”
Previously, in an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Shahid was asked about who from the current generation of actors would pull off Geet and Aditya from the film, Shahid said, “I cannot comment on my role, but for Geet (Kareena Kapoor’s character), I really doubt anybody else will be able to do that kind of justice.”
Helmed by Imtiaz Ali, Jab We Met was released in 2007. The film was recently re-released on Valentine’s day and Shahid surprised fans by joining them in the theatre.
