Can you possibly believe that it has already been ten years since 'Jab We Met' released? And have you wondered what must have happened to Geet Dhillon and Aditya Kashyap after 'Mauja Hi Maju'? The movie wasn't just a blockbuster hit but also rang so emotionally well with a lot of us and so today, as we celebrate ten years of the epic movie, we thought why not bring to you what happened to the happy couple after they danced their way into a life together. Here’s what Imtiaz Ali thinks is happening with the gorgeous couple...

“There would be a situation (post ‘Mauja Hi Mauja’, the film’s last sequence) where Geet will be planning her honeymoon, ferociously and very, very particularly. Aditya will be enjoying very much because Geet has always been the one to do the planning. They will go to certain places and she will have a very strong regiment and all of that… She will be very expressive about how she wants to live her life and the way she wants to do regular things. It would be very good. But there would be one time, when they would outgrow that, and change and become different because there would be a conflict where she will become too expressive. Although Aditya will not complain, she will realise on her own that she is overstepping and how it would be for her if Aditya was to behave even for a day the way she behaves with him, how overbearing it would be. That would completely change her and it would bring about a certain maturity in her, which only happiness can give you. She will remain like that (her old self) but (she will learn) that it is possible for that kind of person to not be overbearing. That’s the learning she has to do.”

And for all of you who think that the above would make a great sequel let us disappoint you by saying that that won't be happening. “I have been asked many times to consider making a sequel to ‘Jab We Met’, but I don’t want to because I don’t want Geet to compromise. There will be a conflict between the two and I don’t want Geet to go through that. I want her to retain original nature, her purity", says the director on being asked about the matter.

Too bad, right?
