In an old interview with Film Companion, Kareena Kapoor Khan mentioned that it was Shahid who asked her to consider the script of Jab We Met. She recalled him saying that the girl’s part is amazing, and that she should do it. “Of course, then destiny had its own plan and life took its own course. A lot happened in the making of this film and Tashan and our lives… We all kind of went our separate ways. And this beauty of a movie came out of it,” she said.
For the unversed, Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor were in a relationship for several years before parting ways in 2006. The duo broke up before Jab We Met release. Both stars eventually moved on to build happy families-Shahid with Mira Rajput, and Kareena with Saif Ali Khan.
