When Imtiaz Ali’s Jab We Met released in 2007, Bollywood moviegoers were in for a treat. It’s not a hidden fact that the Shahid Kapoor-Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer went on to become a blockbuster success, but did you know it inspired a TV show that starrer Sidharth Shukla and Pavitra Punia?
That’s true. The 2007 film, which was known for its characters and chartbuster music, inspired Star Plus to show Love U Zindagi in 2011. The story, which premiered at the end of January in 2011, was loosely based on the rom-com.
Love U Zindagi was centred on Rahul Kashyap (Sidharth Shukla), a broken-hearted scion and Geet (Pavitra Punia), a young, bold and bubbly girl. Just like the film, the serial too was set in a Punjab and saw the duo meet on the Punjab Mail train and begin a memorable journey of their lives. The young travel from Mumbai to Bhatinda, Punjab and from there to Manali.
