Shahid Kapoor is on a career high with the success of Padmaavat. But it was another announcement that excited one and all. Imtiaz Ali and Shahid Kapoor announced that they would be collaborating for a film once again. The duo have given us one of the best romantic films ever – Jab We Met, so after hearing this news we were quite excited. However nothing is sure untill the end in Bollywood and looks like their movie has now been shelved, at least for a couple of years. It’s not because of any issue between Imtiaz and Shaid, but because the producers were not sure about the movie.
As a source revealed to Mumbai Mirror, “The script was a little edgy and even though Shahid loved it, the producers approached were somewhat sceptical about its experimental nature. Shahid and Imtiaz met recently and have decided to keep this film on the backburner for now. Imtiaz and Shahid may return to this project next year or maybe later.” Imtiaz’s last release – Jab Harry Met Sejal was also somewhat experimental and it did not work at the box office. Was that the reason for the producer’s scepticism? Well, that’s something only they will know. But what’s your take? Share with us your thoughts in the comments section below!

In the meantime, the tabloid even got in touch with Imtiaz’s spokesperson to confirm this news. The spokesperson mentioned, “Imtiaz hasn’t made an official announcement about his next film or its cast. When he is ready to do so he will make the requisite announcement.” Well, we just hope the two do collaborate for a film together because we are sure it will be worth watching.
