After co-starring alongside Kareena Kapoor in Sujoy Ghosh’s film Jaane Jaan, Vijay Varma is now set to share the screen with Kareena’s elder sister, actor Karisma Kapoor, in Homi Adajania’s upcoming film Murder Mubarak. In a recent interview, Vijay opened up about his experience working with the Kapoor sisters. The Gully Boy actor confessed of having ‘one-sided love’ for Kareena, while also forming a strong friendship with Karisma Kapoor during the shooting of Murder Mubarak.

Speaking to Siddharth Kannan, Vijay said, “People saw the affection I had for Kareena in the film Jaane Jaan. That’s a fatal attraction, one-sided love for Kareena. The kind of love where you admire the person from a distance. With Karisma, on the other hand, I got to hangout with her very closely and we became very good friends. There is a good friendship between us, a lot of love and I have been her fan.”

Jaane Jaan marked Kareena’s first on-screen collaboration with ace actors Vijay Varma and Jaideep Ahlawat. In a previous interview, the Udta Punjab actor also mentioned how her husband and actor Saif Ali Khan warned her to be prepared before shooting with them. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Kareena said, “Saif was like, ‘You need to be a little more prepared as they are going to be very well-prepared.'”
