Overview
- In a Pinkvilla conversation reported on Friday, May 22, Imtiaz Ali said Shahid Kapoor’s and Kareena Kapoor’s children have been shown the 2007 film Jab We Met.
- Ali recalled asking the Central Board of Film Certification what certificate the movie received after its censor screening and was told it was given a clean certificate with no disputes.
- He added a personal detail that Shahid’s wife Mira Rajput Kapoor prefers Ali’s later films Rockstar and Tamasha and once sang a song from those films when he visited their home.
- Both Shahid and Kareena have previously said they would show Jab We Met to their children, a choice the director described as a pleasing sign that the film still connects with audiences.
- Released in October 2007, Jab We Met grew its audience over time and the director’s latest comments underline the film’s ongoing cultural legacy and how family viewing can renew interest in older movies.
