Mumbai, March 8 (NationPress) It was truly a remarkable moment at the current edition of the International Indian Film Academy Awards (IIFA) taking place in Jaipur, where Bollywood stars Kareena Kapoor Khan and Shahid Kapoor shared a warm hug on stage.
The duo has a rich history as they were in a romantic relationship for around 4 to 5 years before they moved on to marry their respective partners.
Kareena also discussed her upcoming performance at the 25th IIFA. She stated, “Namaskar, it’s such a joy to be here. I’m thrilled that IIFA invited me to perform. My act will hold special significance as we will honor my grandfather Raj Kapoor on the occasion of his centenary. I’m incredibly excited. This is a deeply emotional moment, and I look forward to tomorrow night.”
The two stars collaborated in the legendary film ‘Jab We Met’, which premiered in 2007. Towards the conclusion of the film’s shoot, Kareena and Shahid ended their relationship. The film significantly impacted the romantic comedy genre in Hindi cinema, establishing Imtiaz Ali as a prominent filmmaker.
Set primarily in Mumbai, Bhatinda, and Shimla, the story follows Aditya Kashyap (played by Shahid), a heartbroken entrepreneur who boards a train and encounters a chatty Punjabi girl, Geet Dhillon (played by Kareena). As they miss their train, Geet and Aditya embark on a journey to her home, leading to a love that transforms them.
This film also initiated a successful partnership between Imtiaz, music composer Pritam, and lyricist Irshad Kamil.
After the film, Kareena was in a relationship with Saif for five years before they married in 2012. Shahid tied the knot with Mira Rajput in 2015, and they have two children, a daughter named Misha and a son named Zain. Misha was born in 2016, and Zain followed in 2018.
Kareena also has two children with Saif: her elder son Taimur and her younger son Jeh.
