For the unversed, Ameesha Patel has never been paired opposite Shah Rukh Khan in a full-fledged film, with her only appearance alongside him being a cameo role in Farah Khan's 2007 movie ‘Om Shanti Om.’ In the film, she played the leading lady opposite Bollywood superstar Om Kapoor, portrayed by Shah Rukh Khan.

This movie was a parody of Shah Rukh's 2000 film 'Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani' and humorously connected it to the various 'NRI' films he had worked on during the late 1990s and early 2000s. Ameesha's cameo featured her in a yellow sari, running towards Shah Rukh Khan with the Swiss Alps in the background, set to the tune of the title track from Karan Johar's 1998 romantic comedy 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai.' Her appearance was part of an award show segment within the film.
