Despite being perceived as medieval to Saif Ali Khan at this point in their real-life romance Kareena Kapoor Khan and Shahid Kapoor have left such a significant mark on Indian pop culture that it will remain evident forever. Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor made their relationship public during their film pairing while they dated from 2004 until at least 2007.
Each of them established new partnerships with their life partners after their relationship ended. Both actors delivered their most influential work in Jab We Met (2007) where Geet and Aditya taught generations about romantic love through Imtiaz Ali’s storytelling.
Over time Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan have shown near zero connection in public which bordered on trouble during 2016 release Udta Punjab media interactions although they shared the same cast list.
The sudden change steered a complete departure from earlier reports. The weekend IIFA 2025 enabled fans to see Shahid and Kareena embrace each other while sharing candid conversations which generated widespread satisfaction and brought back fond memories of their past interaction.
Beyond starring as leading characters in Kadal in 2005 they have now returned together as Shahid and Kareena at IIFA 2025 but also as Geet and Aditya. Every viewer receives a particular emotional response to such type of reunion.

People commented about this sudden and unexpected shift in their behavior by stating “Back during udta punjab days they couldn’t even stand together it took them like 9 years to get to this point lol”, “Damn never expected them to talk so nicely with each other”, “Both have moved on..good to see” and “Oh my my how did Shahid become so normal wid Kareena but it’s a pleasant change from his awkwardness” among other comments.
The reason behind this shift became clear in an incidental comment when it was suggested that “he reached out when Saif got stabbed and that broke the ice”.
The Instagram reels community received their material early according to those excited spectators who predicted “Insta reel walo ko material milgaya. Past present cross cut karne ka. Multiple users wrote “We will see engagement content featuring separation songs or poetry”, “Shahid Kareena Insta feeds will become filled with their edits” and “Many users will make reels with the song ‘Tum se hi'” based on their comments.
All people who experienced the Shahid-Kareena drama from its beginning will find this moment exceptionally pleasing to watch.
