Jab We Met was directed by Imtiaz Ali.
Released in 2007, Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor played the roles of Aditya and Geet respectively in Jab We Met.
Kareena Kapoor Khan and Shahid Kapoor’s Jab We Met is one of the most loved movies. Released in 2007, the romantic-comedy was a big hit and continue to rule hearts even today. While fans often demand a sequel to the movie, looks like it is finally happening. If a report by Times Now is to be believed, plan for Jab We Met 2 is ‘taking shape’.
As reported by the entertainment portal, Raj Mehta, the proprietor of Ashtavinayak will producer the movie under the Gandhar Films banner. Gandhar Group, which has a 30-year long history in the oil refinery sector, stepped into the entertainment industry back in 2021 with the establishment of Gandhar Films & Studio Private Limited. It has also been reported that Imtiaz Ali, who directed the first film, is likely to direct the sequel too.
While there is no official announcement regarding Jab We Met 2 from the makers, it is now being speculated if exes Kareena Kapoor Khan and Shahid Kapoor will come together for the movie and reprise their roles as Geet and Aditya respectively.
Jab We Met was also re-released in theatres earlier this year when Shahid Kapoor also talked about the potential sequel and told Siddharth Kannan, “It really depends on the quality of that script. So if there is a script that demands a sequel and I feel it is the kind of script that you read and say ‘man this will be better than the original this can match up to the original’ I would do it but if I feel it’s not and I’m just trying to use the brand value of the original thing to do then I feel that that ‘why are you doing it, don’t do it’.”
The 42-year-old actor further praised Kareena and shared that no other actress can pull off Geet the way she did. “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,” he added.
