Recently at Elle Beauty Awards 2019, Kareena initially refused to share details about the film by saying, "I can't talk about that because it's very special, and when the time comes, we'll talk about it." The actors are reuniting for the first time after the highly successful 3 Idiots (2009). "All I can say is that it's absolutely an honour to be in the same frame with Aamir (Khan). I've always been a huge fan of Aamir. He's a cinematic genius. It's always a 'dream come true' (moment for me) to work with him," she added.
Next year, Kareena will complete two decades in the film industry. Kareena looked back at it and said. "I think it's been an amazing twenty years.

Aamir Khan is currently busy with Laal Singh Chaddha, his forthcoming comedy-drama. The film is an official remake of the 1994 Hollywood classic Forrest Gump, that starred Tom Hanks as the protagonist. Even as the work on the film is on in full swing, it has emerged that it will be made with the full support and knowledge of Hanks.
According to sources mentioned in a report by an entertainment portal, Hanks might come on board to back the project. In fact, a meeting between the two stars might be on the cards. The source has been quoted in the report saying, “Viacom 18 is looking at arranging the meeting between Tom Hanks and Aamir Khan as a warm-up to the remake.”
In Laal Singh Chaddha, Aamir will be seen playing the same character that Hanks played in the original.
