Shahid had said, "It really depends on the quality of that 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 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 that ‘why are you doing it, don’t do it’."

Talking about Kareena Kapoor Khan's Geet, he added, "For Geet (Kareena Kapoor’s character), I really doubt anybody else will be able to do that kind of justice." For the unversed, the duo was last seen together in 'Udta Punjab'.
