Saif and I offer our condolences: Kareena

kareena
Kareena Kapoor was in Philadelphia when the Mumbai terror attacks happened, but that didn't stop her from being enraged. Read a letter she wrote about the situation:

7000 miles away and very, very angry.

On Wednesday, 26th November, when the terrorists attacked Mumbai, I was getting ready to start my day 7000 miles away in Philadelphia. I got a call from my sister saying there are bomb blasts in Mumbai. It was an eerie feeling. Seven years ago, we were in India following the news coverage of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York. Today, I was in the US, following the news coverage of the 26/11 attack on India's financial capital. CNN was carrying live coverage of the attacks.

In the days that have followed the 26th of November, I have felt a surge of mixed emotions. Sadness at the loss of lives and property. Admiration for our police, armed forces and firemen, who did their best and fought bravely despite the limited means at their disposal. Disgust with the so-called political leaders who provide no leadership and ironically surround themselves with so many security guards while doing little or nothing for the security of the people who have voted them to power. And anger at the cowards who kill in the name of religion, and anger at the cowards who support them without owning up.

I am writing this after seeing pictures of the citizens' rally at the Gateway of India and I am filled with pride. It was wonderful to see so many of us speaking in one voice for our city, our country. I am writing this piece as this is the only way I can reach out to our people from so far away.

I want to applaud the media for being pro active... and for being the force that is trying to unite the nation. We must genuinely unite if real change is to come... there are too many divisions...political and religious in our minds. If we are to be secure and strong we need to fight terror together... without any negotiation.

Saif and I both would like to offer our deepest condolences to all the bereaved families...you are in our thoughts and will stay in our minds...I love my city very much...Mumbai is my home, our home... and is the city that has given us all so much. I pray that we can build a better tomorrow on the rubble of our today.

Kareena, Saif shares same room

kareena
Saif Ali Khan-Kareena Kapoor is all set to take their relationship to a new level. The madly in love couple left an impression that they will together move to a new apartment which is specially designed by Akshay Kumar’s wife Twinkle. “I have told Saif that I will be giving him points while working with him for Karan’s film and only after the schedule is over will I decide whether he has become my favorite co-star or not. I love the story as its set against a different backdrop. My favorite co-star is Akshay Kumar as there’s a great comfort level while working with him. Lolo and I are also very close to Akshay`s wife Twinkle who is designing Saif`s and my flat in Bandra”, a news daily quoted Kareena as saying.
Saif and Kareena unlike other couple did not make any attempt to hide their relationship from the public and openly expressed love for each other. All have seen them flaunting their love in public but they did not get a chance to romance in reel in spite of starring in Tashan and Omkara. In both the films, they have been cast opposite different actors.

But they will soon satisfy the thirst of those who are longing to see them together; the duo will be paired opposite one another in Karan Johar next production. The news of Saif-Kareena’s living together heats up the atmosphere

Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor

Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor are not getting marrying for few years. As Kareena is just 27 and still have 6-7 more years to stay in the industry, the couple decided not to marry soon. Instead they decided to live in before getting married. Recently, they bought a new flat in Bandra and Akshay Kumar’s wife Twinkle Khanna will design it.

As quoted in news daily, Kareena said, “I have told Saif that I will be giving him points while working with him for Karan’s film and only after the schedule is over will I decide whether he has become my favorite co-star or not. I love the story as its set against a different backdrop. My favorite co-star is Akshay Kumar as there’s a great comfort level while working with him. Lolo and I are also very close to Akshay’s wife Twinkle who is designing Saif’s and my flat in Bandra.”

A close source to the actors revealed, “Kareena doesn’t want to marry so soon. She is just 27 and still has at least 6-7 more years to go before she goes her sister Karisma’s way. Karisma got married only after she felt she had achieved something in her career as an actress. Saif is madly in love with Kareena and wanted to marry her as soon as possible. But Kareena is reluctant. So both, with the consent of their families have decided to live-in before they get married.”

After Akshay Kymar, it’s Kareena Kapoor which will be seen dancing with American entertainer Carmen Electra in the Kambakht Ishq music video.

A source close to film’s unit said, “Akshay Kumar has already done a music video with an international performer (Snoop Dog for Singh is Kingg). Meanwhile Kareena has struck gold with item songs.

Meanwhile Kareena has confirmed the news, who is currently shooting in Philadelphia for Karan Johar’s film. But she didn’t give many details, as she says, “Yes, it’s true that I’ll be there in the music video with Carmen Electra and Akshay.

For the film, Kareena had also done a superb action scene with Sylvester Stallone. She says, “Just wait and watch what all I’ve done in Kambakht Ishq. I’ll shock the audience.”

Size Zero for Skinny Kareena Kapoor

kareena
Kareena Kapoor has men swooning after her. Heck, she even has the women going wow! But, according to a recent survey, skinny models in advertisements don’t seem to be driving the sales. So how true is this really and why is thin not in anymore?

Ad guru Mohan Menon says, “The whole thin is in, or out is really a phase, which was brought by magazines like Vogue. They initially use skinny models and then graduate to fuller, more buxom women as their pin-up girls. I personally do not think that you need a skinny girl to sell a product. When we look at ads, we are looking for something identifiable. Let’s take Kareena Kapoor for example. The girl is reed thin. Unless she has an extremely high-rate of metabolism, I don’t see how or where all that cola that she endorses goes,” says an amused Mohan Menon.

Ad man JD Jerry agrees with the study and says that the findings are true, especially down south, where fuller women are considered to be more attractive.

Model Rochelle, who is a size-zero herself says, “I completely agree with the survey. Ads should have models that the general population can identify with. As a model, I am required to be fit, but trust me, there are days when I have struggled to get into outfits and have worn stuff that I’m not comfortable with. Women, irrespective of their physical structure, should be comfortable with their own bodies and ads should definitely be more realistic, because unless the audience sees themselves in the product or as the aspirational user, they are not going to buy it.”

Another increasing concern is the effect the size zero fad has on youngsters. Nutritionist Rashmi Nambiar says, “A number of teenagers and aspiring models come to me saying that in their bid to lose weight, they starve themselves and take dietary supplements to curb their hunger pangs. Indian women can hardly ever be a size zero because our bone structure is not suited to that figure. We have been blessed with curvaceous bodies and we should aim at keeping ourselves healthy and fit, instead of running after this trend. It could also prove to be dangerous and these ads could bring about low self-esteem and confidence,” says Rashmi.

Agreeing with Rashmi is designer Julie, who says that she has had clients leave her shop because they are unsure about wearing an outfit that has been modelled by a skinny girl. “I have had cases where my clients will love the dresses they see on the ramp, but will refuse to buy it because they think it will not flatter their body type. I have to then convince them and tell them that it can be made to suit their requirements. A majority of my clientele consists of women with fuller figures and I love dressing them. Ramps should promote more reality. Indian women are voluptuous and there is no reason why we shouldn’t flaunt it,” asserts Julie.

So, why then is the Indian runway filled with anorexic women who have porcelain faces and an attitude to match? “While I think it is essential to be fit, I don’t think size zero is healthy at all,” says Karun Raman, a fashion choreographer. “Curvier women have an oomph quotient that skinny models lack. A woman who fills out her clothes is definitely sexier than someone who is just all skin and bones. Give me a Salma Hayek over a Kate Moss any day baby!” says Karun.

Bebo To Start A School For Handicap Kids!

Kareena Kapoor has many plans for her future. Apart from collecting a showcase full of awards, she wishes to start a yoga school for underprivileged and handicapped children.

Apparently, sister Karisma Kapoor also plans to join in with Bebo. When asked about the same, Kareena gave a reluctant reply –

k4.jpg

“I am uncomfortable talking about such things. I feel it’s best to talk when the time is right and they happen. Lolo and I have plans some of building a school for underprivileged and handicapped children. We have such schools all over but we need to have specially equipped ones with people fully qualified to take care of the children and their special needs. It’s been a dream for both of us to have such a school but these are plans which will take shape much later — all in good time.”

Kareena Plays a True Ektaa Kapoor Fan!

kareena90.jpg

Kareena Kapoor has surprisingly again taken up a multi-starrer film Golmal and the reason for that, like always is that Bebo has a very interesting role.She plays a true blue Ektaa Kapoor fan in the film. Infact, her character is called Ekta too. She plays a young housewife who is badly influenced by Ektaa Kapoor’s ‘K’ serials and is always accusing her husband (Ajay Devgan) of cheating on her.

“Bebo plays a housewife who is heavily inspired by the saas-bahu serials. She is able to draw a parallel between her husband’s infidelity with specific instances of infidelity from some of the TV serials. It’s hilarious!” confirms Tusshar Kapoor.

Fitness Freak Kareena Impresses Aamir Khan

kareena aamir

Kareena Kapoor, in her new skinny avatar, was dismissed as anorexic by many. But look what Kareena has won herself - an admirer none other than Aamir Khan.

Aamir Khan who is known to keep to himself while shooting for his films apparently shared a great rapport with Bebo and they would have long conversations over fitness.

Aamir talking to a news daily exclaimed, “Kareena has a great body. She is a fitness freak and her devotion towards her workouts has definitely made an impact on me.”

Aila!

Kareena a Fan of Saif’s Ex-Wife

saif-kareena3.jpg

Kareena Kapoor may still have 3-4 years more to go before she walks down the aisle and says Kubool Hai to Saif, but she is trying her level best to fit in to Saif’s family well in advance. She has bonded well with the Pataudis, Saif’s kids Sarah and Ibrahim also like her and guess who she is ready to break the ice with - Saif’s ex-wife Amrita Singh.

In an interview she revealed, “I respect the fact that Saif was married before and has two lovely children. I have been a fan of Amrita Singh. I haven’t met her ever but I know her through her films. For me, she’ll always have a place of importance in his life because she is Saif Ali Khan’s first wife and the mother of his children. And, I’ve told Saif this. I would want her to have that kind of respect always. This is what my parents have taught me. At the end of the day, it was just a marriage that didn’t work out. I have always encouraged Saif to be friends with her because I think that would be great. I guess they will just need time but that’s something that they would need to deal with. I will always respect her. As far as any other relationship of Saif is concerned, I don’t think they really mattered.”

KAREENA KAPOOR QUICKLY WANTS TO REPLACE DEEPIKA PUNDOKONE

Kareena
Kareena Kapoor will be seen romancing her Saif in Raghavan’s spy thriller Agent Vinod . Saif plays the title role and Kareena, his love interest. Reportedly, Deepika was the first choice for the female lead in Agent Vinod but it seems Kareena was in no mood to take yet another defeat from the young star. However, director Raghavan explains that he never approached Deepika for the film. But yes he is keen to work with Kareena for the same.

JUST LOOK AT THOSE CHEEKY EYES



Ever since Agent Vinod was announced, Bebo was keen on bagging the role and made sure that Deepika doesn’t get away with her sweety pie this time. Perhaps the lady just wants to be with Saif at all times, at work and otherwise and keep his attention solely on her. We all are aware of Saif’s Casanova ways, aren’t we?

When asked, S Raghavan confirmed, “I haven’t yet signed her but hope to do that soon. I can give more details only by December end.” The film will have two leading ladies � an Indian (Kareena) and a foreign actress. The film will go on the floors in March 2009. Apart from this, Saifeena will be seen together in Karan Johar’s next.

Kareena not happy with Amrita's marriage plan

kareena aamrita

The entire industry is aware that Kareena Kapoor and Amrita Arora are the best of buddies and care a lot for each other.

Recently, when Kareena got the news of Amrita's plan to get married to boyfriend Shakeel Ladak next year she was quite upset.

She is worried mainly about Amrita’s career, which is somewhat on a high right now.

Reportedly, Amrita has decided to tie the knot under pressure from her family.

Amrita has been in and out of relationships in the past and hence the family does not want to take any more chances. They want that like sister Malaika, who got married when she was 23, Amrita also should get married as she is already 28.

According to sources, Kareena thinks it's too soon for Amrita to settle down. She feels that she should think before rushing into this big decision.

The source further added that Bebo always speaks her mind. She also feels that Amu's career is now looking up and it is a wrong decision for her to get hitched right now. Kareena wants Amu to give some more time to her relationship with Shakeel and not jump into marriage right away.

Kareena see her future with Saif

Kareena



Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan have been together for more than a year now. Her love life with Shahid Kapoor never really made so much news but with Saif, she's been painting the town red for months now. They have been 'joined at the hip' and their off screen pairing has made more news than their careers.

Bebo has recently opened up more in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE magazine and has talked in detail about family approval, marriage, kids and the challenges of being in love.

She's said, "I want to get married and have children. I would do anything to keep a relationship going. For me, time is a very precious commodity and I'm always there for Saif. And that says a lot. It's very easy to talk about fidelity, loyalty and swimming the seven seas but considering the lives we lead, I think the most important thing in a relationship is the amount of time you can spend with each other."

She's made it clear that she has had no problems with Saif being married before. In fact she respects Saif's ex wife Amrita a lot!

She addsed "Not really. I respect the fact that Saif was married before and has two lovely children. I have been a fan of Amrita Singh. I haven't met her ever but I know her through her films. For me, she'll always have a place of importance in his life because she is Saif Ali Khan's first wife and the mother of his children. And, I've told Saif this. I would want her to have that kind of respect always. This is what my parents have taught me. At the end of the day, it was just a marriage that didn't work out. I have always encouraged Saif to be friends with her because I think that would be great. I guess they will just need time but that's something that they would need to deal with. I will always respect her. As far as any other relationship of Saif is concerned, I don't think they really mattered."

She sees a future ahead with Saifu too.

She's said, "Of course, we do talk about the future. If I was to imagine what it would be like 30 or 40 years from now, I see Saif and me on a yacht, sailing across the world."

It will be great to see another rare real life pairing lasting so long in the big bad world of Bollywood.

Akshay in trunks to woo Kareena in bikini for ‘Kambakht Ishq’

Kareena
Sajid Nadiadwala's 'Kambakht Ishq' is certainly looking more than promising, what with Akshay Kumar's death defying stunts and Kareena Kapoor's size-zero body in bikinis!

The feisty babe is all set to give her beau, Saif Ali Khan, some sleepless nights as she strips down to a two-piece to get close and intimate with Akshay, who will be luring the lady in nothing but trunks.

While Kareena's two-piece look has been designed by Akki Narula, Akshay Kumar's look has been done by Shabina Khan. The 'Khiladi' wants to give his best shot in the shorts - and, sources say: "Akshay is on a restricted diet for the last 40 days."

The twosome is sure to send temperatures soaring, as they perform some underwater sequences for the film, in the exotic locales of a scenic village in Venice.

To create an underwater effect, a fairly expensive set was put up. A suburban swimming pool was first drained of all the water. Thereafter, a replica of a Venetian lansdscape was created by noted set designers, Acropolis. While the mountains were made of acrylic, the coral for the coral reef was flown in from Venice.

After the set was designed, water was poured back into the pool and a glass chamber was erected so that the film could be shot

Actress Kareena Kapoor has been appointed the new brand ambassador of soft drinks giant PepsiCo's snacks. She will be seen with boyfriend Saif Ali Khan, actress Juhi Chawla and cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni in a new ad campaign for the product.

"It is a privilege to be associated with the brand as it is a big hit among youngsters. I'm excited and looking forward to a long and fulfilling association with the brand," said Kareena in a press statement.

The new TV commercial will go on air in mid-November.

"Kareena's vibrant persona, pan-India appeal and her confident attitude makes her a great fit for our brands," said Deepika Warrier, PepsiCo's marketing director.

Apart from its carbonated and non-carbonated drinks, Pepsico is known for snacks range that includes Cheetos, Munchies and many more.

Kareena will be a Khan in three years!

Kareena
Denying tabloid reports of differences with boyfriend Saif Ali Khan, Kareena Kapoor says she is madly in love with Saif and will marry him in three years.

"Marriage will happen for sure.. but after three years," Kareena told HT in an interview.

Reacting to recent tabloid reports, attributed to her friends, that she was finding Saif's unceasing attention oppressive, Kareena said, "That's so unfair, really. I'm doing five films.. he believes in doing one at a time. So, we try to grab as much time as we can get together."

"He keeps showering me with presents.. the best was a holiday in Maldives," she added.

Asked if Saif had given her any diamonds, Kareena responded, "Woh bhi diya hai.. clothes.. small trips.. but the most expensive thing that he has given me.. is his time."

And what gifts had she given him?

"Myself," the ever so modest Kareena responded.

Kareena will be next seen in Milenge Milenge directed by Satish Kaushik with co-stars Shahid Kapoor, Aarti Chhabria and Satish Shah.

Her forthcoming films include:

Main Aur Mrs Khannadirected by Prem Soni with co-stars Salman Khan.

Golmaal Returns directed by Rohit Shetty with co-stars Shreyas Talpade, Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi, Celina Jaitley, Amrita Arora and Jai Walia.

Loudmouth Kareena Kapoor at it again

Kareena
Kareena Kapoor
- No one can accuse Kareena Kapoor of being modest. Earlier this week the Kapoor loudmouth alluded to herself as a superstar and now she is going around calling herself Bollywood's best actress.

When Kareena was asked if her commitments to her career and Saif were ever at odds, she said, "There's no comparison between the two. When I'm working, I'm working. And when I'm with him (Saif), I'm all there."

Going totally out of context she added, "Besides, Saif is a superstar himself. He's so busy."

Suggesting that both she and Saif Ali Khan were superstars. That is about as subtle as Kareena can ever get!

Speaking about her Hollywood projects Kareena told IANS:

"I have been offered one project but I am actually very happy doing Indian films. Its tough to do a Hollywood film - I mean the language and stuff, I can't put on an accent."

She then cheekily added, "I would rather be the best here than go there."

Kareena Kapoor is undoubtedly a fine actress if not a modest one, but she is certainly not the finest with talents such as Kajol, Rani Mukerji, Vidya Balan and Tabu to contend with.

Before Jab We Met (2007) her last hit was Omkara (2006) and before that Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001).

Being a loud mouth has its advantages. For example, something that Kareena will never need is a PR.

Kareena Kapoor back at the top!

Talented actress Kareena Kapoor can put the stunning failure of her earlier release this year, Tashan, behind her, going by the thumping response to Golmaal Returns in which she plays a prominent role.

Though Golmaal Retruns has an ensemble cast, the film producers featured Kareena prominently in its promotional campaign with a view of leveraging her considerable fan base and the strategy has paid off!

A trade analyst reveals, "Golmaal Returns has recorded the biggest opening ever and the fact that Kareena was centrestage in its publicity has proved that she is the film's biggest draw."

The opening for the first day was impressive at 95-100%. The film has matched historic openers like Om Shanti Om and Singh Is Kinng on day one in terms of capacity though the film has been released on a lesser volume of shows than those films.

It's the best ever opening that Kareena has ever had and it's time for Bebo to celebrate.

Why Kareena Kapoor amazes Vivek Oberoi!

 Kareena Kapoor
 Despite his MISSION ISTAANBUL falling like a pack of cards at the ticket window, Vivek Oberoi is not unduly worried and the reason behind his cool and calm composure are his upcoming projects with top directors and producers of the industry. One such venture that he is very confident about is Karan Johar's Rensil D'Silva directed untitled film opposite one of the most famous and talked about couple of Bollywood, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor.  This is Vivek's second film with Saif Ali Khan after the award–winning OMKARA, where both Saif and Vivek put up sterling performances. Vivek is all praise for his OMKARA co–star, who he shares a great rapport with but it's his girlfriend and actress Kareena Kapoor who amazes Vivek with her style of functioning. Vivek says that Kareena is a spontaneous actress and her spontaneity amazed him (just like Hrithik Roshan in KABHI KHUSHI KABHIE GHAM!). Vivek discloses that Kareena comes unprepared to the sets and believes in no rehearsals, and moreover she does not need many re–takes to deliver a mind–blowing performance.  Infact Vivek adds that at times when he delivers his lines Kareena comes up with totally different ones or she simply forgets and starts to smile. She makes the tense atmosphere on the sets light with her easy going attitude. After working with her for a while now, Vivek has now got used to Kareena's style of working and is full of admiration for his co–star, who he feels contributes to a stress free and light working environment, where there is no pressure and thus all perform brilliantly.  Here's looking forward to another winner from the Dharma Production stable after DOSTANA!
