Shahid and Kareena

In an interview with Rajeev Masand, Shahid Kapoor had spoken about his breakup with Kareena Kapoor. He had shared. "Yes, it was a very trying period for me for almost a month, and it was very clearly a question for me of choosing between my personal feelings and my profession. I had two choices, one was to come back and not talk at all, not go out in the press and not interact with the media- which would save me the pain of answering questions which I am uncomfortable about, or go out there and promote my film which was releasing in three weeks."

Shahid Kapoor had further added, "I chose to do the latter because I think it was important for me as a hero to be there for my film and I had great faith in the film. So yes it was difficult and uncomfortable but I accepted that as a part of the way things work out here." He had retorted, "I think the most difficult was to not talk about because it was so public and it was really important for me as a person to draw a line as they are areas that are very personal and it's not classy to talk about them in print."

Even Kareena Kapoor (now Kapoor-Khan) had also talked about her breakup with Shahid Kapoor. In a throwback interview with Cosmopolitan, she had shared the most important thing she ever did for Shahid Kapoor. Bebo had shared, “Nothing. Our relationship is not like that, it's too early. It's too soon for the romance part to start. At the rate we're both shooting, there is no time to look deeply into each other's eyes and be lovestruck. We are more like friends (giggles) okay, a little more than friends...”

When probed about how they used to spend time with each other, Kareena Kapoor had then stated, “We do the stuff any other young couple does, eating out, watching movies...I really enjoy watching movies. When we get a chance, we go to Fame Ad Labs to see films, we sneak in when it's dark, after the movie has started. It's lovely. It's so relaxing. That's what I enjoy most about being with Shahid. I get to be normal and do normal things.” Revealing her irrational fear, Bebo shared, “Speed and heights. I never sat on Shahid's bike and now he's sold it. His mom made him give it up.” (Also Read: Unseen Pic Of Saif Ali Khan And Kareena Kapoor Khan's Wedding With Sara Ali Khan And Ibrahim Khan)
