Ms Kareena Kapoor, 30, is known as the actress who triggered the size zero phenomenon in India.

In the 2008 film Tashan, the Bollywood A-list actress, almost overnight, dropped 8kg to 48kg for a bikini scene that ultimately became the most talked-about part of the film.

The 1.65m-tall actress continued to look thinner and thinner, evoking the envy of young Indian women and the concern of others.

Shahid Kapoor is in UK shooting for Mausam while Kareena Kapoor is off to Morocco to complete a quick schedule for Agent Vinod. Incidentally, both these films are their home productions.
