On the sets of Omkara, Kareena Kapoor had shared the screen space with Saif Ali Khan. In an appearance on Look Who’s Talking With Niranjan in 2014, Kareena Kapoor Khan had recalled the time and had shared how she and Saif had limited interactions. Talking about the same, Kareena had said, “(Saif) is from a different generation. I've know him, I have been hanging around on sets when Lolo and Saif were shooting in Hum Saath Saath Hai in Jodhpur. Then we did Omkara where we didn't speak and we were with our respective girlfriend and boyfriend at that time and we hardly interacted or even exchanged a word. It was always like 'Good morning.' He used to always be like 'Good morning ma'am,' and, you know, treat me with so much respect. I was like okay because he is anyway so chivalrous.”

He was like 'Why?' For me it was (gasps). He was like I didn't know. It was like entire building had crumbled on his head. So I don't know what he meant by that, whether he thought he was very lucky or what. But well, eventually, it all worked out and I think I was responsible for it.”

Bebo had said, “You and I both have grown up in that same kind of space, where we are continuously in a high-speed shot. It happened with me and Saif. Saif will never...it’s not in his head. He’s like Clint Eastwood. He’s on another Hollywood level and I was in Main Hoon Na, like that Sushmita saree wala flying. That’s why I said we both are quite similar.”
