After the success of Jab We Met, Kareena Kapoor had naturally expected that director Imtiaz Ali would be more than happy to work with her again. If the success of the film did great things to her career, it did wonders to his career as well. Suddenly, Imtiaz was the most wanted director on everyone's list.

And Imtiaz quite shocked everyone when he opted for Deepika Padukone for his next film. The film, 'Love Aaj Aur has been produced by Kareena's boyfriend Saif Ali Khan, but there was little the actor could do to change the director's mind. Saif was very keen that Kareena star in his maiden production but Imtiaz was equally adamant that Deepika suited the role more than Kareena. The actress may have been hurt by the director's gesture but that did not stop her from wanting to be directed by him. And it seems that she has finally got her wish as Imtiaz has been roped in to direct an ad which will be starring her. It seems that Kreena was the one who pushed for Imtiaz as the director and this one time she managed to get her way.
