Earlier this year, "Jab We Met" was re-released in theatres, reigniting discussions about the potential sequel. Shahid Kapoor weighed in on the matter during an interview with Siddharth Kannan, stating, "It really depends on the quality of the script. So, if there is a script that demands a sequel and I feel it is the kind of script that you read and say 'man this will be better than the original or this can match up to the original'-- I would do it.

"But if I feel it's not and I'm just trying to use the brand value of the original thing to do, then I feel that 'why are you doing it, don't do it'," he added.

The actor also showered praise on Kareena Kapoor Khan, emphasising that no other actress could do justice to the character of Geet the way she did. He added, "I cannot comment on my role, but for Geet (Kareena Kapoor's character), I really doubt anybody else would be able to do that kind of justice."
