There have been many stories on why Shahid Kapoor has been hesitating to give the go-ahead for his mother Neelima Azim's debut directorial venture.

Here's the real reason: Shahid was never the same with his mother ever since she married Raza Ali Khan four years ago.

However, the situation is now changing. The mother and son are mending bridges. A few weeks ago, Shahid went over to his mother's house and had a long discussion with her and Raza.
A source close to Shahid and Neelima tells us, "Shahid was not comfortable when Neelima informed him that she was marrying Raza. He had strong reservations about the marriage and he told his mother about it. He told her that she should take some time before taking the plunge. However, Neelima had her own reasons to not delay the marriage."

"After Neelima's marriage, Neelima and Shahid began moving apart emotionally. Shahid used to visit her, but the visits became fewer and far in between. However, it seems to be a case of 'all's well that ends well' now. Some time back, Shahid and Raza met to try and break the ice and are on better terms now. It is not easy for Raza too, so both Shahid and Raza have to make a lot of effort in the days to come," our source adds.

When contacted, Neelima said, "Well, Shahid had his point of view and I had mine. It's okay. Things are falling in place now. After all, I am his mother."

Buzz is that Neelima plans to cast Govinda, Shahid and Amrita Rao in the main roles in her film. Shahid will soon go through the script and give his reply by end of this month.
Shahid's parents, Neelima Azim and Pankaj Kapur separated when Shahid was only three, and Neelima brought him up single-handedly. Pankaj went on to marry Supriya Pathak.
