Sonam Kapoor Celebrates 15 Years Of I Hate Luv Storys With A Jab Mila Tu Moment
Sonam Kapoor marked 15 years of I Hate Luv Storys with a heartfelt post and film snippets on social media.
Sonam Kapoor took a nostalgic trip down memory lane as her beloved romantic comedy I Hate Luv Storys completed 15 years after its theatrical release. Marking the occasion, the actress shared a heartfelt post on her social media, featuring snippets from the film that charmed audiences back in 2010.
Released on July 2, 2010, I Hate Luv Storys marked Sonam's third Bollywood movie. In the film, she portrayed Simran, a dreamy, romance-loving woman who crosses paths with the cynical and witty Jay, played by Imran Khan. The duo's contrasting personalities and evolving relationship formed the crux of this modern romantic tale, set against the vibrant backdrops of Mumbai and Queenstown, New Zealand.
The song showed a montage of the best moments of Sonam from the film, with the song Jab Mila Tu by Vishal Dadlani in the background.
Directed and written by Punit Malhotra in his directorial debut, the film was produced by two major banners—Dharma Productions (Hiroo Yash Johar and Karan Johar) and UTV Motion Pictures (Ronnie Screwvala)—bringing them together for the first time in a collaborative project. The film's breezy storyline, youthful vibe and fresh pairing of Sonam and Imran struck a chord with the younger generation.
The soundtrack, composed by Vishal–Shekhar, became an instant hit, with chart-topping numbers like Bin Tere and Bahara. The lyrics were penned by Anvita Dutt Guptan, Kumaar and Vishal Dadlani. The film also earned four nominations at the 56th Filmfare Awards, including Best Music Director (Vishal–Shekhar), Best Lyricist (Vishal Dadlani for Bin Tere), Best Male Playback Singer (Shafqat Amanat Ali) and Best Female Playback Singer (Shreya Ghoshal for Bahara).
Sonam Kapoor has taken time away from the silver screen, especially after embracing motherhood. She welcomed her son Vayu on August 20, 2022 and was last seen in the 2023 thriller Blind, directed by Shome Makhija.
Meanwhile, Imran Khan, who has been away from acting for nearly a decade, is finally making a much-awaited comeback. Known for his memorable roles in romantic comedies like Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and Break Ke Baad, the actor is all set to return to the screen opposite Bhumi Pednekar in an upcoming rom-com. The film will be helmed by Danish Aslam, who previously directed Break Ke Baad, reuniting him with Imran after 15 years.

Karan Johar on Jigra's box office failure, calls it a ‘success story': ‘A decade or two later, we will reference it as something Alia was brave to do'
Karan Johar has opened up about the commercial disappointment of Jigra, the 2024 action drama starring Alia Bhatt . Directed by Vasan Bala , the film failed to meet expectations at the box office despite strong faith from the cast and crew. In a recent conversation with Suchin Mehrotra, Karan admitted the team was 'disappointed, dejected and sad' but maintained that Jigra remains a project they are deeply proud of. 'We all trusted Vasan's vision,' Karan said, praising the filmmaker's bold storytelling. 'Vasan's meta-referencing, quirks and style of breaking the grammar of filmmaking—such things may not always land. But should he stop making films like this because of that? No! He must always make films that he believes in.' A film ahead of its time? Karan revealed that he, Alia, and Bala still share a private group chat where they often joke about the film. 'Vasan has a brilliant self-deprecating sense of humour. Even now, I believe that a decade or two later, we will reference Jigra as something that broke ground, something Alia was brave to do, and Vasan was brave to make,' he said. Lilliput apologises to Karan Johar: 'I told him he had feminine gestures—never meant to hurt him' While acknowledging the film's lacklustre performance, Karan called it a 'success story' in spirit. 'There are films I am not proud of that have failed... This one, I am very proud of,' he added. Jigra, which released on October 11, revolved around a high-stakes prison break, portraying the lengths a sister would go to protect her brother. Backed by Dharma Productions, the film combined action and emotional depth but failed to connect with a wide audience at release.
