Though celebrities frequently attend live cricket matches in stadiums, internet users were taken aback when they noticed Kareena and John together in one photo. A few of them brought up the incident where Kareena made fun of John on national television and declared she would never share a screen with him. This was shared with other social media users.
"Not Bebo sitting in front of the guy she once said she would never work with," a user commented on the post. Another wrote, "But Kareena always hated John Abraham."
It all happened in front of filmmaker Karan Johar on his controversial and much talked about chat show, Koffee With Karan, in 2007. Kareena had appeared on one of the episodes with her then-boyfriend, actor Shahid Kapoor.
Kareena, known for her honest, candid and sharp-witted remarks, expressed her reluctance to work with John, and also called him 'expressionless'.
Later, when John appeared on the show, Karan asked him about his equation with Kareena and Shahid. To this, he had replied, "I think they’re pretty sweet. At least Shahid is pretty sweet." Not satisfied with his answer, a curious Karan then asked John about his bond with Kareena. However, the Pathaan actor refused to reply and just stated, "No comments."
It should be noted that during the 2001 film Ajnabee's production, there were rumors of conflict between Kareena and actress Bipasha Basu, John's ex-girlfriend. Kareena stated in a 2002 interview that during the filming, Bipasha didn't agree with her designer, Vikram Phadnis. Kareena said that Bipasha's "only claim to fame" was this disagreement.
In response to Kareena's jab at John at the time, Bipasha had previously referred to her as an actress with "too many expressions."
However, it appears that John and Kareena have both decided to move on from their past grudges. Hoping they'll also share screen!
