Actress Kareena Kapoor may be getting married to beau Saif Ali Khan soon, but for the time being, she is spending ample time with director Madhur Bhandarkar.

And Saif doesn’t seem to mind it a bit. Quips Fashion’s director, “For the rest of this year and a major part of the next, Kareena and I are destined to be together. “

And before you let your mind run amok, the rendezvous surrounds Madhur’s ambitious film, ‘Heroine’.

The role which was originally to be essayed by Aishwarya Rai Bachchan went to Kareena Kapoor, after Big B’s bahu became pregnant, sending the director’s plan awry.

Says the jubilant director on his second find, “Kareena and I always wanted to work together, but it never happened. Call it destiny or whatever you like, but seems like Bebo had to be my Heroine.”

The film is finally gone on floors and is expected to complete in six months.

“I’m glad that the  shooting of Heroine has finally begun. I plan to complete the film by March-April next year,” informs the director, who feels that the film will not only be a landmark in the history of Indian cinema, but the best of Kareena’s career.

Heroine’s story tracks the life of an actress in the industry.

And given that it would have all kinds of looks and shades, Kareena these days is busy working hard not only to be able to look the different parts, but speak as well.

 

With Ash clearly busy now, Kareena will look to take over the mantle of Bollywood’s most wanted.
