Shahid Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor’s Warm Hug At IIFA 2025 Press Conference Steals The Spotlight, Take A Look

March 8, 2025: Bollywood fans were left pleasantly surprised at the IIFA 2025 press conference in Jaipur when former co-stars and ex-lovers Kareena Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor were spotted sharing a rare and warm moment. The two, who were once one of the most adored couples in Bollywood, were seen hugging and chatting amicably, creating a buzz among fans and the media.

The ex-couple, who were in a relationship during the early 2000s, starred together in several hit films, including Fida, Chup Chup Ke, and the iconic Jab We Met. Their on-screen chemistry made them a favorite among fans, but their personal relationship ended just before Jab We Met was filmed. Since then, both have moved on with their lives—Kareena married Saif Ali Khan and is now a mother of two, while Shahid tied the knot with Mira Rajput and has two children as well.

Despite their past, the warm exchange at the press conference showed how much they have matured and moved on. Paparazzi were quick to capture the moment, and the hug quickly became a viral sensation across social media platforms, with fans celebrating the cordial relationship between the two stars.

The 25th edition of IIFA, which is set to take place on March 8 and 9 in Jaipur, Rajasthan, will be a star-studded event. This year’s festivities include a special celebration of the 50th anniversary of the iconic film Sholay, with an exclusive screening at the famed Raj Mandir Cinema. Additionally, legendary MMA fighter Anthony Pettis will make a special appearance, and Kartik Aaryan will host the awards show. Kareena Kapoor Khan is also set to perform at the event, where she will pay tribute to her late grandfather and legendary filmmaker Raj Kapoor.

Fans are excited to witness this historic moment as the IIFA Awards celebrate both the legacy of Bollywood and the growing maturity of its stars.
