By: Salman Akhter Shahid – Kareena Starrer ‘Jab we Met’ has been running successfully in between the battle of giant productions of SRK’s ‘Om Shanti Om’ and SLB’s ‘Saawariya’ and it seems its success has got overshadowed by these two much hyped Diwali releases.
Jab We Met is a very significant success that marked the first Solo Pair big success for Shahid Kapur and Kareena Kapoor, their last ‘Chup Chup ke’ and ‘36 China Town’ too were moderate successes but they were surrounded by other talented brigade of actors like Sunil Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Om Puri and Akshay Khanna, paresh Rawal, Upen Patel & Johny Lever, who shared almost equal screen space alongwith Shahid and Kareena.
Jab We Met’s successful ride at the box office turned out to be ‘unsuccessful journey’ in terms of 
relationship between the lead pair, they delivered one of their best performances before ‘they left’ each other, it is already been declared officially that Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor are together.
Jab We Met has now consolidated the position of Imtiaz Ali as Director, who earlier made ‘Socha Na Tha’ with his distinctive fresh style of narration.
Being the solo hero Shahid Kapur got the most advantage by its success, he is now in a position to choose and act in a movie, predictably, he is following the footsteps of Aamir Khan while selecting the project, his growth as an actor is clearly evident in Jab We Met, watch the scene where he addresses his business meeting, he showed the sign of a mature actor, co-incidentally, the arrival of the youngest star Ranbir Kapoor with ‘Saawariya’ has further upgraded his stature as a star actor due to his seniority.
