Shahid Kapoor had ‘no issues’ working with Kareena in Udta Punjab

Shahid Kapoor says that it is the film that matters, not the scenes that co-actors share together.

Ever since they signed their new film Udta Punjab sometime last year, talks have been rife about Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan ‘coming together’ for a movie once again. The duo has been seen in multiple films till date, including the much-loved Jab We Met (2007). But now, as the Abhishek Chaubey-directed film readies to hit theatres, it’s clear that Shahid and Kareena have no scenes together.

“In this film, our (the actors’) journeys have been very independent of one another; there are few scenes that we have with each other. Kareena and I don’t even have one shot in the film, while Alia (Bhatt) and I have three scenes. Diljit (Dosanjh) is fantastic, and Kareena adds a lot of credibility. Alia is fast becoming the best actress of her generation,” says Shahid.

Shahid Kapoor feels Kareena is adding a lot of value to the film, Udta Punjab, and that she “is great for her part”.
