Stuntman Akki meets supermodel Bebo

Kareena Kapoor
Stuntman Akki meets supermodel Bebo this summer!

Kareena Kapoor
Sajid Nadiadwala's KAMBAKKHT ISHQ is all set to make this summer even hotter with its release. The audiences will finally get a peek into the much awaited Akshay Kumar - Kareena Kapoor starrer KAMBAKKHT ISHQ during the screenings of AA DEKHEN ZARA.


Kareena Kapoor
The film has already created the much needed buzz already before even the promos are out. The audiences had a long wait before they can get a sneak peak of the movie. The film promises to be one of the biggest entertainers to hit the screens this year. The film is directed by debutant director Sabbir Khan.


Kareena Kapoor

The film's USP is undoubtedly the exciting chemistry between Hollywood stunt man (Akshay) and a firebrand model (Kareena). Both the protagonists are strong headed people, and both have their own terms of life. Akshay lives by the mantra that "women are only good for one thing" and Kareena can stare down the most arrogant male with her caustic wit and sardonic tongue. Another star attraction is undoubtedly the number of Hollywood stars included in the movie.



Producer Sajid Nadiadwala has gone all out for KAMBAKKHT ISHQ. It's an exciting marriage between the East and the West. The movie is a romantic comedy but features a lot of action. Sylvester Stallone, Brandon Routh and Denise Richards play interesting roles in the film as well.


Last year GHAJINI was the most awaited movie, and this year undoubtedly KAMBAKKHT ISHQ is the most awaited movie. When the audiences would leave the theater they would be spell bound and would have their tongues wagging wanting for more.

kareena favorite among all saif's wife:Sharmila Tagore

Kareena KapoorMumbai: Now here's some hush-hush news: Saif Ali Khan has taken Kareena Kapoor to their ancestral home, Pataudis, Saif's mom Sharmila Tagore revealed to DNA. What was more exciting to hear from Sharmila's mouth was that Saif's dad Mansoor Ali Khan Patuadi is very fond of Bebo and that they gel very well.

"Saif and Kareena are very much in love with each other and Saif has brought her to the Patuadis. He keeps on visiting his home with Kareena whenever he wants to slip away from his hectic life and can squeeze time out of their schedules. The last time they were home was a month back. Saif is very fond of Pataudis and the people he is fond of will have to like Patuadis too," Sharmila says, laughing. The Pataudis, which traditionally houses the Nawab of Pataudi, was a princely state located in present-day Haryana state.

She adds, "We are very fond of Kareena and in fact Mansoor is very fond of her. We all gel well when they are around but formally in terms of marriage plans, nothing has started as yet. We realise that Saif has gone through a divorce and Kareena too is out of a long relationship. She wants to give some more time to her film career. We love her but it is a little early to talk about marriage. When they are ready, they will tell us and we will pick it up from there."

Sharmila also revealed that lawns of the Pataudis will soon be open to common people for philanthropic work. "We did something for the visually challenged sometime back and now we want to do something for people suffering from hearing related problems.
We want to follow the earlier module by tying up with organisations working for the cause of the deaf people and bring them to our place once or twice a week and give them free treatment."

Akshay, Kareena set to scorch screen in ‘Kambakkht Ishq’

The on-screen chemistry between Kareena Kapoor and Akshay Kumar is being touted as one of the highlights of the action comedy “Kambakkht Ishq”.

Akshay plays a Hollywood stuntman, while Kareena features as a model in the film.

“The two look hot together. Akshay and Kareena will set the screen on fire. The duo share such a good chemistry on screen,” said a source close to the project.

Ever since their 2004 film “Aitraaz” became a hit, their on-screen chemistry was touted as one of the best. Apart from “Aitraaz”, they teamed for films like “Talaash”, “Bewafaa” and “Tashan”, but none of these could ape the success story of Aitraaz”. Now all eyes are set on “Kambakkht Ishq”.

The film, which is scheduled for May release, also stars Hollywood biggies.

“The film is an exciting marriage between the East and the West. The movie is a romantic comedy but features a lot of action. Sylvester Stallone, Brandon Routh and Denise Richards play interesting roles in the film,” said producer Sajid Nadiadwala in a press statement.

First Look: Kambakkht Ishq


Scheduled to release this summer, the Akshay Kumar - Kareena Kapoor starrer, directed by Sabbir Khan is already creating a huge buzz and promises to be one of the biggest entertainer to hit screens this year.

An exciting ‘chemistry’ between a dashing stuntman in Hollywood who lives by the mantra ‘women are only good for...’ and a firebrand model who can more than stare down the most arrogant male with her caustic wit and sardonic tongue, Kambakkht Ishq creates a perfect premise for a thrilling battle of the sexes.

Eros is highly focused on Kambakkht Ishq - an exciting marriage between the east and the west, a romantic comedy and action with Hollywood favorites Sylvester Stallone, Brendan Routh and Denise Richards playing interesting roles in the film as well.
Eros International will be unveiling the first look of its highly awaited film ‘Kambakkht Ishq’, a co-production with Sajid Nadiadwala. The trailer will accompany Eros’ Aa Dekhen Zara which is releasing this Friday, March 27, 2009.

Akshay-Kareena rock in Kambakkht Ishq promos

Kareena Kapoor
All eyes are on KAMBAKKHT ISHQ and rightly so! Some of the biggest names in the business -- Sajid Nadiadwala, Kishore and Sunil Lulla of Eros, Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor -- have got together for this film and the makers have also roped in a good number of international biggies (Sylvester Stallone, Denise Richards, Brandon Routh) for the project.



The first promo of the film will be unveiled this week, with the prints of AA DEKHEN ZARA.

The promo begins with a striking visual -- the skyline of Los Angeles -- and soon Stallone takes over. 


He's about to hand over an award to the best stuntman (Akshay Kumar). Yes, Akki plays a stuntman in the film, while Kareena plays a supermodel.
One would expect the two lovebirds to hold hands and run around trees, right? But KAMBAKKHT ISHQ is different.



Here, the two are constantly at war, constantly arguing and threatening the other. The tu-tu-main-main makes for interesting viewing and the backdrop (Hollywood) only elevates the film to dizzy heights. If the promo is an indicator of what is to follow, await KAMBAKKHT ISHQ with bated breath.

Kareena Kapoor Tops Filmfare Power list

Kareena KapoorThere has been a steady flow of awards in Kareena Kapoor’s way. She is on cloud nine with so many achievements and running short of space to place those awards at her home. Adding another feather on her hat is the position of the most powerful actress in the industry with her inclusion in the Filmfare power list for 2009.

What makes the status more powerful is that she is the only women in the male dominated list. Hence, it proves how stronger and powerful she is. Bebo not only ranks higher in film offers but she is also the face of prominent products. Ad makers are running after her with whopping amount to sign her for their product.

Sources close to her said that Kareena feels very obliged to be present amongst the greats of the film industry, and it’s her shear hard work which has bought her till here. This year she has many good releases. On looking at the speed at which Kareena Kapoor is progressing, it indicates that days are nor far when Bebo will rule the industry.

Kambakht Ishq, Kaminey going to be delayed?

Kareena KapoorA heart-breaking news for the fans of big ticket Bollywoodfilms is that two of the upcoming summer biggest Bollywood releases – Kambakht Ishq and Kaminey will be delayed. Akshay Kumar-Kareena Kapoor starrer Kambakht Ishq and Shahid Kapoor-Priyanka Chopra starrer Kaminey were due in the last week of May (May 29th) and first week of June (June 5th) respectively but now chances are they could be pushed further due to the ongoing revenue sharing issue between multiplexes and producer/distributors.

Industry insiders revealed, “If the on going revenue sharing issue is solved within the next three weeks, only then it is possible for Kambakht Ishq and Kaminey to arrive on their scheduled dates. But given the extremely stubborn stand of both – the multiplex owners and the Producers Guild, at the moment it looks very unlikely as no headway has been made with talks between both parties with both sticking to their points.

We all know that a film requires 5-6 weeks promotion and the Producers Guild has banned all promotion
of new films till there is an agreement with multiplexes on revenue sharing so therefore if the situation is resolved by mid April then Kambakht Ishq and Kaminey can start promotion from that date. But the scenario at the moment suggests no early settlement. Of course a producer can release his film early without any promotion but there is little chance of that with a biggie like Kambakht Ishq as risk would be huge and even with Kaminey, release with little or no promotion is an unlikely.

Kareena as Air Hostess

Kareena KapoorNo, Kareena Kapoor has not signed a movie where she is playing an airhostess. However, in a candid newspaper to a leading daily, she did reveal that while acting was always her first choice of career, she did have dreams of becoming an airhostess. “Apart from wanting to be an air hostess and fly the world, but my father was very against that.” She later on took up a keen interest in studying Law. “That was the lawyer phase, where I went to Govt. Law College for six months and ran away because of the books.” She definitely did not have to become an airhostess to travel the world; the actress does enough of it being an actress.

Her interview continued on to discuss her launch vehicle which she still holds close to her heart, despite the current cold vibes she shares with Abhishek Bachchan, “I did get launched with Abhishek, irrespective of whatever issues are there today.” Beau Saif Ali Khan has not casted Kareena Kapoor to be a part of his first production but the confident actress has no problems with his decision, “The fact that I am not the heroine of his first production just goes to show that we have our complete different zones when we work.”

Bebo also went on to divulge some secrets to her strong relationship and if marriage to the Chote Nawab was on the cards. The story goes that Khan actually proposes to Kapoor everyday! “Saif Ali Khan is actually the guy who has wanted to be single all his life, run away from relationships, run away from commitment, but he always tells me ‘you are actually the only girl that I really wanted to commit to’." However, she went to express that Saif is completely supportive of her decision to wait to for marriage and understands that she is at “a stage which every girl would want to be at in their career.” And for that, she loves him even more. Her relationship advice to young woman? “A woman should have that ‘comfortable’ effect on her man. At least she then knows her man is going nowhere.”

'Kambakkht Ishq' promo – Akshay calls Kareena a 'bitch'

Kareena KapoorThe promo of Sajid Nadiadwala’s movie Kambakkth Ishq has its leading stars Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor calling each other canine names.

The movie’s trailer was set to air on television from this weekend but may not go on air because the Censor Board deems it unfit for mass viewing and has given it an ‘A’ certificate.

According to reports the promo has certain objectionable content.

The Board’s regional officer is quoted as saying that the promo as has Kareena calling Akshay “a dog”. Akshay responds to her in same vein by calling her “a bitch”. If that’s not objectionable enough there’s a dialogue that says that women are only meant for making love.

Though the above dialogues could be part of the film’s comedy, the Censor Board chose to gave it an ‘A’ certificate because the context of the dialogues is not established in the promos.

It means that the promos can now be shown only in theatres and that too with movies that have ‘A’ certification.

Kambakkth Ishq’ is one of the most awaited films of this year. Apart from Akshay and Kareena, it has cameos by Hollywood stars like Sylvester Stallone, Denise Richards and Brandon Routh.

Bebo is emotional-Abhishek

I’m in a hurry to wed, Saif wants to wait, says Kareena, as she does some frank speaking .

Kareena KapoorYou were always an industry kid, you accompanied Lolo everywhere. In your mind was there ever another career choice?
Never, apart from wanting to be an air hostess and fly the world, but my father was very against that. He was like we will send you on a whirlwind tour whenever you want, but you are not becoming an air hostess.

Actually there was another phase that came in between, that was the lawyer phase, where I went to Govt. Law College for six months and ran away because of the books. You know it just made me so scared. I was like "I just have to leave; there’s no way I’m doing this."

I have also made things happen for me. I’ve worked with directors that not many people would take the risk of working with like Sudhir (Mishra, Chameli) and Imtiaz (Ali, Jab We Met). I mean today every one wants to work with them, but I took up that challenge because I believed in those scripts. So I think for whatever adulation is happening now, apart from my mother’s support and the directors who cast me, I really don’t have anyone to thank.

When you started your career, you had this huge controversy about leaving Kaho Na Pyaar Hai and opting for Refugee instead. Was that choice right for you?
I think it’s the best thing that happened because I got known as an actress from my first film. It was a role which was not a contemporary launch break, where you are looking beautiful and stuff. The role was performance driven. And though I was not launched with Hrithik, I did four films after that with him.

I did get launched with Abhishek, irrespective of whatever issues are there today, and that’s engraved for life, it’s on screen now that I was launched with him and I would regard that as a very special moment in my life, so to me it was again another great decision I took.

Talking about Abhishek, you sister’s choice impacted your life, still impacts your life in terms of work. How cool are you with that?
Like I said it’s never been a pitfall if I was not part of a film because he never wanted me to be a part of it, I think I would thank him for that, because its fine if he doesn’t want to work with me because I don’t want any actor to be uncomfortable. Acting is a profession in which you have to be very comfortable with each other. It’s sad that it had to reach this point but in my life there’s still room for Abhishek, I would say that quite openly that there’s still room for him. I don’t know in what way he is uncomfortable, but it’s sad, because films will come and films will go, but I just wish this little bit of room was still left in his heart for me.

You have never thought of picking up the phone and just calling him up. You must have been talking to him a lot at one time?
But if someone is uncomfortable, then I will also be uncomfortable, so its best left at that, but of course in my heart there will always be a door open.

Will this work if Saif offers you a role too?
Today if Saif offers me a role for his production and I am not happy with it, I will use my mind and I will say ‘it’s not up to the mark, Saif’. I will not make the mistake of following my heart and doing it no matter what I have done in the past.

You’ve been through adolescent romance and are now in a more mature one. How do they compare?
I think every relationship prepares you for your final destination and I think every relationship has been a preparation. I have learnt a lot of things from my relationships. If it doesn’t work out then that is God’s wish and that is destiny which I have completely come to terms with.

You turned vegetarian in your last relationship. Was it because you loved the person or did you choose to become a vegetarian?
I chose to and that is validated by the fact that I am still one in spite of me being with a man who is a hard core non-vegetarian, who at every given step would be eating his steak and his roast chicken. I did it completely because I believed in it. It’s because of a book I read and I completely believe in. Nobody has put a dagger to my head. I’ve learnt something from Shahid and that’s something that Saif appreciates and in fact Saif always tells me that "Listen, if now you go back to being a non vegetarian, I’ll loose faith in you as a person." I’ve traveled the word with Saif and he’s sat across thousands of tables from me and I’ve stuck to my French fries even though I have to put on a kilo on my scale, but I would not go for the roast chicken.

Going vegetarian changed your body type too...
I think it’s a mix of that as well as a lot of yoga which also just changed my personality.

Was Saif just there when you broke up with Shahid?
Choice is where you choose to be, and where you want to be and in such a personal issue, I think there’s so many things that happen which one shouldn’t be digging up and shouldn’t talk about. Saif has always been my friend first in that period and now my lover, so I think we’ve grown from friends to being in this relationship. And the choice is that I clearly wanted to be where I was. I don’t believe in mud slinging, I don’t believe in discussing my relationships, I think the fact that I’ve just been purely honest and I’ve never hidden the fact that I was with Saif and that I am with Saif.

So then isn’t the next logical choice marriage?
I want to tie the knot but at the right time. People think that Saif is pressurising me but I would like to say on record say that he’s never done that. In fact I am always wanting to tie the knot and he’s the one whose been telling me that "listen, lets give it some time, lets wait, your are at a stage which every girl would want to be at in their career, so sit back and just enjoy the roller coaster ride for some time. And that’s what makes me love him more to tell you the truth. I don’t think any man in the industry would ever want to tell an actress the same thing. The reason why I want to be with him is because he is so supportive of my work and respects me for what I am doing.

So he doesn’t want to change you in anyway?
Not at all, not at all. May be a little bit of more holiday time. He’s always calling up my secretary and yelling at him "From nine days my holiday has become four days because of her endorsements. But Saif is witty, he laughs about these things and that’s what makes him so unique and understanding.

The story goes that he proposes to you every day
Can you believe that? Poor thing he is so upset, he’s like "Why are they doing this to me?" Saif Ali Khan is actually the guy who has wanted to be single all his life, run away from relationships, run away from commitment, but the fact is that he always tells me "you are actually the only girl that I really wanted to commit to." I am with him all the time, but I give him space to be with his family, to do what he wants to do with his work. The fact that I am not the heroine of his first production just goes to show that we have our complete different zones when we work.

Would you choose to have kids?
I think hopefully, God willing, I pray my children look like my mother and my sister and my father and me, with our pink cheeks. When I look at my niece, Im like Oh God, she is just the most beautiful girl in the world, she is gorgeous, gorgeous, so yes of course I want to carry forward this tradition and what could be more royal than to have Saif and my child. I think it would be just wonderful. The thought is there but it’s a very far off thought because like Saif jokes, "I have three children, Sara, Ibrahim and Bebo." He himself tells me I’m not ready for kids yet.

So where is the relationship now?
Every one teases me Im a great girl friend. I have just learnt the art of balancing a working relationship and that of a girl who is involved. I think I’m just like, maybe a super woman who just kind of understands that in a relationship you have to learn to give, to get. Its just something that is in me. If someone comes to my house or someone comes to meet me, I like to make everyone feel comfortable. I think that’s just a trait that’s been with me since I’ve been a child. I like to talk to people. A woman should have that ‘comfortable’ effect on her man. At least she then knows her man is going nowhere.

Kareena want to marry soon

Kareena KapoorKareena Kapoor, who has received as many as four awards in just one month, says plans of her marriage to Saif Ali Khan may not happen for at least two years as her career is going great guns.

"It won't happen for the next two years for sure. Am I crazy to get married now when so many wonderful things are happening to my career? Saif himself is ultra-busy trying to set up his production house. Marriage can wait. I'm just happy to have him by my side. I've got the best guy any girl can ever have.

"Right now I'm so busy I don't have time to sleep properly. I haven't even had time to move into my new house," said Kareena.

Overwhelmed after receiving four awards, she said: "Who doesn't like attention, recognition and awards? I've got four awards in a month beginning with the environment award I got from Erin Brockovich, then two youth icon awards from Rotary International and Stardust. And now on Tuesday I was honoured by FICCI, which Yash Chopra gave to me.

"My mother gets exasperated each time I bring home another trophy. Saif wants to know where I'm going to keep all of them. I've set aside a whole enclave for trophies and awards. I love looking at them. One day my children are going to look at them and be proud of me."

Now, after a long time, Kareena will be in Mumbai for a month. "I've a month-long schedule of Rensil (D'Silva's) film coming up in Mumbai."

Saif and Kareena returned home to Mumbai this week from Delhi without completing the shooting for D'Silva's film. "We never expected such crowds. They were everywhere. And it was impossible to shoot," she says, sounding not the least put off. "Those people who love me out there keep me going. I love my fans and awards."

And now Delhi will have to be fudged in the Mumbai schedule of D'Silva's film.

The extent of the surging crowds in Delhi in the key shooting spots like Jama Masjid and Janpath for D'Silva's untitled film was so huge and unmanageable that the unit has returned without shooting the required sequences.

Back in Mumbai after a week of futile shooting, Kareena says: "Everywhere we went there were these huge numbers of people who had come to see Saif and me. They were very sweet, very well-behaved. But unfortunately the number of people in key places like Jama Masjid and Janpath was always too high to shoot properly."

As a result, there was almost no shooting. "We did some shots. But it was impossible to shoot with wide-angle lenses because the crowds were everywhere. We'll now have to recreate some of the Delhi sequences in Mumbai."

Kareena is certainly not unhappy about the attention she got in Delhi. "The people in Delhi were so warm. It just made me realise how much of a responsibility I have towards my audience. At this stage of my career I'd rather take another holiday
than do a bad film."

Kareena Kapoor Has Her Priorities In Place

Kareena KapoorThe foray of Bollywood actresses into IPL hasn’t prompted Kareena Kapoor to follow suit. Preity Zinta , Shilpa Shetty and Juhi Chawla have a stake in their respective IPL teams, but Kareena isn’t itching to join the IPL bandwagon. Kareena makes no bones in admitting that she doesn’t have much business sense.

“I have no idea about business. I only know how to act. As for business, I will think about it five years later,” Bebo is quoted as saying.

Kareena is the new youth icon of India and has gone ahead to receive four awards in the last one month and the lady’s loving all the adulation.

“Who doesn’t like attention, recognition and awards?” she quips.

Kareena got environment award from Erin Brockovich, then two youth icon awards from Rotary International and Stardust, and was recently honoured by FICCI for her contribution to Indian cinema.

While Bebo’s career is going great guns, where does marriage plan to beau Saif Ali Khan stand on her priority list?

Marriage can wait,” signs off the czarina of style.

Kareena Desperate To work with Imran Khan

Kareena Kareena Kapoor may be all in love with Chhote Nawab Saif Ali Khan but there are some men who still drive her crazy. Bebo has been bowled over by the latest entry to the Khan brigade Imran Khan. During the recent Filmfare Awards when Imran was hosting the show along with Ranbir Kapoor, Kareena just could not take her eyes off the Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na star.

Kareena was so impressed with Imran's attitude and personality that she expressed her desire to work with him. Bebo's wish might come true as Dhoom director Sanjay Gadhvi is keen on casting Kareena and Imran in his upcoming movie. Interestingly Kareena is also working with Imran's mamu Aamir Khan in 3 Idiots. It will be interesting to see whether Bebo sizzles more with mama or his bhanja.

Kareena Saif Ready To Tie Knot

Kareena Kareena Kapoor has received as many as four awards in the last one month and she loves it. “Who doesn’t like attention, recognition and awards? I’ve got four awards in a month beginning with the environment award I got from Erin Brockovich, then two youth icon awards from Rotary International and Stardust. And I was honoured by FICCI which Mr Yash Chopra gave to me.”

Kareena is running out space to keep the trophies. “My mother gets exasperated each time I bring home another trophy. Saif wants to know where I’m going to keep all of them. I’ve set aside a whole enclave for trophies and awards. I love looking at them. One day my children are going to look at them and be proud of me.”

For children to happen, Kareena first needs to get married. “It won’t happen for the next two years for sure. Am I crazy to get married now when so many wonderful things are happening to my career? Saif himself is ultra-busy trying to set up his production house. Marriage can wait. I’m just happy to have him by my side. I’ve got the best guy any girl can ever have. Right now I’m so busy I don’t have time to sleep properly. I haven’t even had time to move into my new house.”


After a long time Kareena will be in Mumbai for a some time now. “I’ve a month-long schedule of Rensil’s film coming up in Mumbai.”

It’s hard for Kareena to keep up with the surge crowds and awards in her life. In Delhi last week, Saif and Kareena returned home this week to Mumbai without much shooting done for Rensil D’Silva’s film.

“We never expected such crowds. They were everywhere. And it was impossible to shoot,” she says sounding not the least put off. “Those people who love me out there keep me going. I love my fans and awards.”

And now Delhi will have to be fudged in the Mumbai schedule of D’Silva’s film. The extent of the surging crowds in Delhi in the key shooting spots like Jama Masjid and Janpath for Rensel D’Silva’s untitled film was so huge and unmanageable that the unit has returned without shooting the required sequences.

Back in Mumbai after a week of futile shooting, Kareena says , “ Everywhere we went there were these huge number of people who had come to see Saif and me. They were very sweet very well-behaved. But unfortunately the number of people in key places like Jama Masjid and Janpath was always too high to shoot properly.”


Resultantly, there was almost no shooting. Says Kareena, “We did can some shots. But it was impossible to shoot with wide-angle lenses because the crowds were everywhere. We’ll now have to recreate some of the Delhi sequences in Mumbai.”

Kareena is certainly not unhappy about the attention she got in Delhi. “The people in Delhi were so warm. It just made me realize how much of a responsibility I have towards my audience. At this stage of my career I’d rather take another holiday

A joint co-production between Sohail Khan Productions and UTV Spot Boy, the film is all set for a 3rd July, 2009 release.

It tells the story about Samir and Raina who have a fairy tale marriage, Samir gets his dream job and they both have a great life… and everything they could ever want! Until one wrong decision leads to them parting ways, maybe forever!

Vikas Behl COO UTV Spot Boy tells us, “Main Aur Mrs Khanna is a beautifully weaved film with a simple story line. This is surly to strike the right chord with the audience like our other films. And with such a talented bunch of actors and team I am sure the film will garner the required accolades from the audience.”

Kareena Kapoor Cheif Editor On Mothers Day

Kareena She wore the pants for this issue. Kareena Kapoor, drop-dead gorgeous even at touching distance in black trousers and blue top, a scarf hiding her neck, strode into the BT editorial conference room at 11 am with an air of purpose.

She was here to edit today’s International Woman’s Day issue — and share in the Times Group’s plans for Women’s March... a month-long calendar of activities in Mumbai thoughtfully drawn up with the 21st century Indian woman in mind, and incorporating such bold and exciting events as riding the waves and clouds in private yachts and small airplanes, a cooking contest where men wear the aprons and toques and get behind the kitchen fires, and an all-women’s car rally from Bandra Kurla Complex to Lonavla and back. The morning ‘cuppa was ignored, so were veggie sandwiches not made in brown bread, the Bollywood reigning No 1 knows how to maintain her size zero. And she doesn’t snack in between work.

Her agenda was simple, this was a man’s world, yes, but there were quite a few women who had made a difference internationally as well — and now was the time to acknowledge them. Like who, the BT edit team asked. “Take Ash and me in Bollywood, for instance,” Kareena shot back, blue pencil poised. “Ash has gone international, she’s taken the country forward in some way... though she’s not very youth centric.” What about the other actresses? “They’re all still struggling to make the mark,” she smiled back, all dimples. And there was Meryl Streep in Hollywood who had taken acting to another level. “I’d swim the Seven Seas to get a glimpse of her,” the woman editor said wistfully. “Ditto Oprah Winfrey, who rose on the stepping stones of her former troubled life to make such a huge and positive impact on other people’s lives.” Somebody asked, what about Michelle Obama? Kareena pouted, “No, Sonia Gandhi... somebody who when she came to India, didn’t know the local language... but she changed herself and is today running the country.” And Freida Pinto? “She’s got determination and a lot of luck... Lady Luck is on her side, look where she’s come from, a one-bedroom flat in Malad, today she’s doing a Woody Allen film... even Ash hasn’t done that.”

The stories for this issue were discussed, ticked off on the editor’s list as either being approved or shot down. Kareena was asked by an over zealous lady reporter, “Why not have Woman’s Day throughout the year?” She replied without hesitation, “One day makes it more special, we excel at our jobs 24/7, but being celebrated and honoured on just one day makes a difference... it’s like our birthday or Valentine’s day, we’d look forward to it and appreciate it more.” Somebody else grumbled that women were forever taking the backseat once they got married. The woman editor pounced on that cue and tossed it back, saying, “The media does not support actresses who get married. Shaadi ho gayi, tho buddhi ho gayi. Actresses sell their talent, not beauty or souls. In Hollywood, actresses are known for their performances, not status and age... look at Kate Winslet, at Meryl Streep, here once you’re in your 30s, if you’re not sexy, you’re branded a Mata!” .

Will kareena Help Katrina Kaif?

Kareena Kat got your tongue? Well the actress has been bonding with new buddy Kareena. Yes, Katrina Kaif has not only mended bridges with one-time archrival Kareena Kapoor, she's also taking fitness tips from her!

Says a source, "The cold war between Kareena and Katrina is a thing of the past. The two bonded at Amrita-Ladak's wedding brunch on Wednesday, chatting about everything from their films to designer outfits and how to maintain a fit and fab body without dieting.

In fact, they were so engrossed in catching up that they even made their beaus, Saif and Sallu jealous. Bebo and Kat do different films, which is perfect for them as there's no competition."

When asked about their special dosti, Kareena says, "Katrina's a sweetheart! We had a blast together at Amu's wedding. She's one actress who is true to herself. That's why I am fond of her."

Katrina Kaif too admits to taking advice from Kareena since last year on having a healthy body. Says Katrina, "We had great fun at Amu's party. Bebo is very sweet and supportive of me. She is my inspiration on how to have a fab, healthy body. It all started last year when I got injured on the sets of De Dhana Dhan and suffered a blood infection. The whole illness left me feeling tired and drained. I was also having over 1500 mg worth of antibiotics so I could recover faster. When I went home to London for Christmas, I was listless and lethargic and could hardly move around."

After her antibiotics ran out (on December 31), Katrina decided to do something about getting a fitter body.

"I hired a trainer who'd help me tone my body, started eating food sent by micro-biologist Sonali Sabharwal and also called up Kareena to help me out. Kareena inspires me. She was more than kind and gave me tips on how to have a healthier body."

Kat also got herself a trainer. "I started training under Yasmin Karachiwala. Now I work out regularly for at least an hour every day. My trainer also accompanies me to my outdoor shoots. It's not about losing weight but doing exercises that make me fitter. I do cardio, functional training which doesn't focus on one part of the body part or weights, and sometimes mix strength training with cardio."

Food for Katrina has also become simplified today. "I have stopped eating chicken completely. I have food from Sonali's. The best thing about the food is that the menus are different every day so one doesn't get bored. It's healthy and gives energy. Currently, I'm shooting for Rajkumar Santoshi's Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahani and take the food with me. I can't eat unit food."

Kareena Patch up with bachchans

Kareena It is learnt from reliable sources that Kareena Kapoor has finally patched up with the Bachchans now. Few days back it was wrongly reported in a Mumbai tabloid that the actress had ignored Amitabh Bachchan at an event completely.

Infact a very close friend of the actress told us that Kareena is one person who will never do so in public. “She knows how to balance her professional life and personal life. She has never shown any animosity towards them. She has been born and brought up in this industry and the question of showing disrespect for the elders will never arise.” the close friend said.

But now Mr. Bachchan has put all rumours to rest by writing in his blog that Kareena and family members as well as the Bachchan family have always given due respect to each other. Another source reveals, “Mr. Bachchan feels that Kareena is a very warm and affectionate person. She has never disrespected her elders. Mr. Bachchan has seen Kareena grown up in front of him as there has always been a huge connection between the Kapoors and the Bachchans from the great grand father times.”

It is may be recalled that that the Bachchan family was not in touch with Kareena Kapoor after Abhishek Bachchan and Karishma Kapoor broke off their engagement. In fact Kareena and Abhishek had made their debut with J.P. Dutta’s film Refugee. The duo had also received good reveiews for their performance.

But after their split Kareena and Abhishek Bachchan have never done a film. Sources had revealed that Abhishek Bachchan had refused to do films with Kareena though she was ready to work with him. In return Kareena had also refused to do Dostana with Abhishek when she was offered the film from Karan Johar.
