Jaideep Ahlawat, who was arguably first noticed in a negative character in Akshay Kumar's 2010 film Khatta Meetha, has been in the industry for over fifteen years. Over the years, he worked on several films against massive star cast. Among them were also the Kapoor family. He had a brief role in Ranbir Kapoor's Rockstar. He also appeared against Ranbir's wife, Alia Bhatt, in Raazi and was recently seen opposite Kareena Kapoor in the Netflix film Jaane Jaan. In a recent interview with ANI, Jaideep shared his experience of working with the Kapoor family, especially Ranbir, who left him mesmerised the whole time. Speaking about the actor, Jaideep said, "I played a very small part against Ranbir Kapoor in one of the scenes in the film Rockstar. I must have worked for about four days with him, but I used to be mesmerised by seeing him in frame. It was evidently visible the kind of hard work he put in the film. He was extremely controlled and fully aware of what he was doing." He added, "He is a huge superstar. People would crowd around him when he would pass a street. Security would beef up every time he stepped out. But once he is in the costume, he would become Jordan. He came with a different feeling."

However, working with her was a whole new experience for the actor. He said Kareena always came prepared on set. "I have never seen Kareena rehearsing on set. She always came prepared. She exactly knew when to do what. She was always open to suggestions. She is somebody who has seen stardom for a very long time and she continues to be a star till date. Its not like her stardom is finished. But, you can spot the curiosity to learn in her. She is always excited to learn something new." Jaideep also recalled working with Alia Bhatt in the film Raazi. He played the role of the agent who trained her to become a detective. He said, "Alia comes with so much preparation. When I worked with her on Raazi, I could see the efforts she would put. The kind of preparation she had done for the film." Jaideep concluded his statement by saying, "Whoever is doing well today, they have been working hard. They are gaining experience with each work they do. They come prepared and are open to changes."
