After the hit Vishal Bharadwaj film Kaminey in which he features in the human role Priyanka Chopra Shahid was seen in Dil Bole Hadippa!, Chance Pe Dance, Paathshaala, Badmaash Company, Milenge Milenge and Mausam. Unfortunately, none of them generate good business.

At first, Shahid said, "Teri Meri Kahaani", showing the love story in three different eras, was the reincarnation. But the director put his doubts to rest.
"One day over coffee, Kunal said he loved the idea really, but it was not developed. It was just a one-line story. He told me it was a funny love story with the same two actors in three different periods," Shahid said.
"I, however, had doubts about making a reincarnation movie. Kunal assured me it was a romantic comedy. I found that interesting. I was skeptical before signing the photo because it's very simple film. It is not complicated at all, "he added.
