“I had immense fun with them. Although I was hesitant to engage with Kareena due to my character, Naren Vyas, in 'Jaane Jaan', which required a certain level of restraint,” Jaideep admitted, explaining how this distance helped him maintain his character’s integrity.
Conversely, he described his time with Saif Ali Khan in 'Jewel Thief' as enjoyable and unforgettable, stating, “We had a blast together.
