Kareena Kapoor and ex-beau Shahid Kapoor together to promote their film “Milenge Milenge” have been called off. While Shahid had no problems with the idea, producer Boney Kapoor feels the publicity would be doubled if the stars do the promotions individually. It has now been decided by producer Boney Kapoor that the pair will promote the film individually, to avoid any embarrassment and awkwardness for Kareena, who’s in a committed relationship with Saif Ali Khan.
“Milenge Milenge” is special because the former couple will be seen together after Imtiaz Ali’s lovable “Jab We Met” in 2007. Kareena is currently dating actor Saif Ali Khan.
Shahid has not only decided to go all-out for “Milenge Milenge”, he has also been taking interest in the release date to ensure that it hits screens at a time when it is likely to get the best audience.He met the producer and they mutually agreed to postpone the release from April to later in the year. Asked if he’d be willing to promote the film jointly with Kareena, Shahid said: “Yes, I’ll do everything I can to promote it. Of course, I’ll do everything in my power to see the film gets properly released. It’s my film.”“We met and took a joint decision. Boney-ji was co-operative. Otherwise I’d have had three releases -’Milenge Milenge’, ‘Paathshala’ and ‘Badmaash Company’ - in one month,” said Shahid.
Boney said he plans to release the film, which has been directed by Satish Kaushik, in the last week of June or the first week of July.“We’re getting Shahid and Kareena to do separate promotional activities. That way we give them space to be comfortable with the situation and also we get twice the publicity for ‘Milenge Milenge’ that we would if the pair promoted the film jointly,” the producer said.
