On October 16 a special preview of the keenly awaited romantic comedy, JAB WE MET was organised in Mumbai. Shahid Kapoor attended with his parents, Pankaj Kapoor and Supriya Pathak, who thoroughly enjoyed the film.

Kareena Kapoor, not surprisingly, decided to give the trial a miss (presumably to avoid any awkwardness) and is likely to watch the film at another pre-release trial.

Actually she was very uncomfortable with the idea of bumping into Shahid's parents after all that has happened between her and Shahid."

Imtiaz Ali, director of Jab We Met, says, "I don't know why she didn't turn up. Maybe she was busy shooting for her film. Shahid could make it for the trial as he wasn't shooting that day. Kareena will be part of some other screening in future."

When asked Supriya Pathak chose to not comment on Kareena's absence.

Inside reports of those that saw the film have been extremely positive. In fact the film has already been passed by the Indian censors with a clear "U" certificate. The UK censors who have also seen the film have approved it with a clear "PG" cert.

We are informed that the running time of JAB WE MET, releasing worldwide on October 26, is 2 hours 22 minutes.
