But a series of events -- while shooting the film -- might just have been the base of the rumours in the first place. Of course, this unique perspective is brought to you by yours truly: The Bombay Bitch.
So here's what happened. We all know by now that Jab We Met is about two people meeting while travelling and then falling in love. This is Bollywood -- you weren't expecting an actual story in a film starring these two, were you?
Anyway, Kareena sports a sans makeup look in the film... which used to take her a long time to get right with her army of hair and makeup artists. But yeah, the nude look was what she was going for.
So on one particular day, where the two Kapoors were to film an intimate scene together, Shahid just couldn't get his act together. Try as he may, he just couldn't feel the passion for his offscreen love. Hmm, could it be that the whole 'no-makeup-as-the-role-demands-it' thing was a put off? Is Kareena just not yummy enough without her war-paint on? I'm guessing these were thoughts jamming Kareena's pretty little head as well. Shortly after, the rumours of their split started doing the rounds. Phew! Finally, some clarity!
I also found out that Shahid also has a blog, run supposedly by a fan. But it wouldn't be too far-fetched to speculate that he's probably been sponsoring (read writing/commenting on it) himself. Everything there is just flowery stories about him -- with dozens of pictures and fan mail. But it has not been updated since July 2006!
