Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor’s friendly reunion at IIFA 2025 has taken the internet by storm. A video of the former couple sharing a warm hug and chatting happily is going viral, leaving fans surprised and nostalgic.
Shahid and Kareena, who dated in the early 2000s, created magic on-screen as Aditya and Geet in the 2007 blockbuster Jab We Met. Their characters became iconic, defining romance for an entire generation. However, after their breakup in 2007, the two moved on with their lives, got married to their respective partners, and kept their interactions minimal. Their awkwardness was particularly noticeable during the promotions of their 2016 film Udta Punjab, where they barely shared the stage.
The recent video from IIFA 2025, however, tells a different story. Fans were thrilled to see the once-distant duo interacting comfortably. Social media was flooded with reactions, with one user commenting, “It took them nine years to get to this point – love to see it!” Another wrote, “Wow, they’re finally so normal around each other. It’s a pleasant change!”
For many fans, this reunion wasn’t just about Shahid and Kareena, it brought back memories of their beloved Jab We Met characters. Seeing them in such a warm moment after years of distance has sparked joy and nostalgia, making the video a viral sensation.
