Then the heroine also changed. But I never felt bad about these things. I felt bad only once. When I signed ‘Jab We Met’ and she could not do it. First of all me and Bobby were doing that film. Then he was being called by the name ‘Train’. After that Shahid and I were about to do that picture. Then that film was going to be made with Shahid about Ayesha. But finally made with Shahid and Kareena. This is how things happened. But never mind. I only felt bad at that time. Never after that. Because I move on. I don’t think much.
