In the 1960s segment, Shahid plays Govind, a struggling musician who falls in love with a famous actress. Says Shahid, "Today in 2012, society has opened up and things are a lot more easier but what was interesting was to find was that there were such interesting characters during that era too."

Speaking about his character Govind, Shahid says, "Kunal told me about Govind's character from the 60s who is from Mumbai which was Bombay then. The period was interesting and exciting. I have seen films with Greek lighting. People were very cool right from the fashion point of view as well as the music point of view. Govind is a normal guy, who is a struggling musician and comes to Bombay to fulfill his dreams. He meets Rukhsar (Priyanka) who is a big star by then. They meet for the first time and he falls in love. Govind lives in a chawl and is in love with this big star. I found this concept very interesting."

In Kunal Kohli’s Teri Meri Kahaani, which is a love story that spans across three lifetimes, Shahid Kapoor will be seen playing three different characters.

In Kunal Kohli's Teri Meri Kahaani, which is a love story that spans across three lifetimes, Shahid Kapoor will be seen playing three different characters.

The first part is in 1910 which is the pre-independence era and Shahid plays a Muslim boy called Javed who falls in love with a Punjabi girl Aradhana, played by Priyanka Chopra. Shahid says, "Unlike the characters I have played in my other films, Javed's character was the worst and most badly behaved flirtatious character. But it is also the most exciting character I have played in my entire career."

The third love story is set in 2012 where Shahid plays the role of this college boy called Krish.

Shahid says, "The third portion is about a campus romance between Priyanka and I. It's about relationships between a boy and girl of today. Where you get out of one relationship and suddenly meet someone, you are not sure if you like him or not. Things are very unclear yet you have to behave normally which is what I really like in the contemporary era."

"So these are the three different eras and three different types of characters. When all this is put in an entertaining space it becomes not too serious or melodramatic. You have just one story in three eras and three entertaining love stories. I thought that viewers would find it as exciting," adds Shahid.
