Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor Khan, who has graced the silver screen for over 23 years, continues to be remembered for her iconic roles as ‘Geet’ from ‘Jab We Met’ and ‘Poo’ from ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham’. The 2007 romantic comedy ‘Jab We Met’, directed by Imtiaz Ali, has left an indelible mark on audiences, and fans seem to be unable to move past its charm.
Recently, Kareena delighted her fans by revisiting her beloved character Geet in a new advertisement. In the commercial, she is seen wearing a vibrant orange kurta with her hair tied back in a ponytail, recreating the memorable scene where Geet heads to Hotel Descent with a friend.
The commercial’s release sparked a flurry of reactions from netizens. One user commented, “Even you can’t recreate what you did in 2007. Jab We Met was pure magic.” Another excited fan wrote, “Omggggg I thought it’s her Jab We Met movie scene.” A devoted fan tweeted, “Geet will forever be iconic!”
Reflecting on the enduring popularity of ‘Jab We Met’ and her character Geet, Kareena shared her thoughts during a chat with Neha Dhupia on her talk show. “Jab We Met completed 16 years in cinema. I think Geet will always be special to everyone because you have never really seen a character who is so honest, so loving, a girl who wants to chase her dreams. She is evergreen for generations and all times, and Geet will always be in me,” Kareena said.
Despite being widely recognized for her roles as Geet and Poo, Kareena has expressed a desire for audiences to look beyond these characters and appreciate her versatility as an actress in films like ‘Omkara’, ‘Chameli’, and others. In a previous interview, she said, “I’m known as Geet and Poo, but I’m a lot more beyond that.”
