Boney Kapoor, producer of the Shahid-Kareena starrer Milenge Milenge has been kept waiting by the couple for dates for over a year. Salman, who makes a special appearance in the film, had earlier shot for Milenge Milenge. But last summer, while on a tour to the US for a show, he took offence to Shahid’s overenthusiasm of trying to correct his dance steps during the show rehearsals. He also called Boney and expressed his inability to continue working in his Shahid-starrer.

If Salman’s mood swing wasn’t enough, more hindrances came up in the form of the need for a new co-star for Kareena. Legendary actor Raaj Kumar’s son, Panini was playing Kareena’s beau in the film. When Shahid and Kareena saw the rushes of Milenge Milenge, they felt that Panini and Kareena made a very odd pair because he looked much older than Kareena. They requested Boney to bring in another actor in place of Panini but he refused to do that. This had lead to the off-screen couple completely ignoring Boney for months.
