She had to be without make-up, someone who could be hyper, talkative and interesting but not irritating. On the two lead actors, Ali commented, 'I wanted a girl who could look natural in scenes where she misses the train. When Ali began casting for the film, Preity Zinta was the director's first choice to portray the role of Geet Dhillon whilst actor Bobby Deol was the first choice for the role of Aditya Kashyap but Shahid replaced Bobby after Ali met him and discovered the actor was more than a poster boy, while when Preity refused to do the film the role went to Kareena. Pre-production work on the film began in early 2007 when Shree Ashtavinayak Cinevision Ltd announced that director Imtiaz Ali would be directing the then real life couple Shahid and Kareena Kapoor in their first 'full-fledged romantic drama'.
