Kareena Kapoor who features in the third chapter of Shobhaa De’s book on fashion that is expected to hit the stores by the year-end, insists that it will not probe into her personal life that is already under the media microscope, but will project her as a Bollywood style icon to the youth. “

It will offer information on my daily sense of style and my personal take on some of the characters I played, like Poo (Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, 2001), Chameli (Chameli, 2003), Dolly (Omkara, 2006) and Pia (3 Idiots, 2009) whose wardrobes made a fashion statement off-screen too,” says the actor.

What about Pooja from Tashan (2008) given that she triggered off the size zero phenomenon? “Of course size zero will figure, since it sparked off a national debate. That’s one subject associated with me that can never be forgotten,” retorts Kareena, who has written the foreward to her dietician friend, Rujuta Diwekar’s book, Women And The Weight Loss Tamasha.

Admitting that she lost weight for this particular Yashraj production that also brought her and beau Saif Ali Khan together, Kareena reasons, “I think I’m the best person to guide youngsters on how to knock off those not-needed pounds in the right way.”

Kareena hopes to launch her fashion line by the end of 2011. “Simple, ready-to-wear clothes that stand out for their casual chic, the kind that make up my everyday wardrobe. But bringing out a label takes times that’s in short supply this year,” sighs the actor who already has a clutch and a pizza named after her and is the brand ambassador for a Size Zero laptop. “I’m juggling with five big movies with the five Khans, Bodyguard, RA.One, Agent Vinod, Stand By Me and a still-untitled film with Aamir Khan. With these and my ad shoots, 24 hours is not enough,” she says.

Kareena Kapoor still enjoys her style queen tag. The actress, who suddenly rose to fame with her size zero and style quotient, is thinking of making her debut on TV with a reality show based on fashion.

As per reports, Kareena has been approached to host a reality show for which she is being offered a whopping amount, approx Rs 1 crore per episode, to be aired on a global entertainment channel. In the show, Bebo will be giving tips to the contestants on how they could style their looks and will give them makeovers too.

Kareena is not denying the news, while talking to a daily, she says, “Yes, I am getting lots of offers but I don’t want to say anything right now.” Now many would think that the show would be a rip-off of some style show from the west. But it’s learnt that the show is not a rehash of America’s Top Model or any other fashion related show, and will be based on a unique concept.

Kareena is keping busy with films and she has several endorsements deals too. She is right now shooting for Bodyguard with Salman Khan and next on her priority list is beau Saif Ali Khan’s much-awaited Agent Vinod, but she will be seen next in Shahrukh Khan’s film Ra.One.

So, amidst Khans and big films, how Bebo will find the time to do a TV show? The sources claim that the actress won’t mind a TV show and is negotiating her take-home pay and also the terms for the show.

Whoa! the style diva has taken her title too seriously.

Life is hectic for Kareena Kapoor. She doesn’t even have time to meet her family and friends. “I catch up with them on the phone when commuting. It would’ve been nice to spend time with Saif (boyfriend Saif Ali Khan) at Cannes, but I have to shoot for Bodyguard. This year people are fighting for an hour of my time,” admits Kareena, who has three big releases to look forward to this year, starting with Bodyguard this Eid. The Salman Khan-starrer will be followed by the superhero fantasy film RA.One with Shah Rukh Khan that is due to release on October 26.

Her two songs from RA.One Chamak challo… and Shake my booty… have already gained popularity, but she’s quick to point out that, “they’re not item songs. One is desi dhinchak and the other is a sexy, western and groovy track.” And towards the wee end of the year, Kareena’s Bond-Bourne kind of spy thriller with Saif is due.

Agent Vinod was supposed to be a summer release. But according to her, since it’s a big action film, the stunts have taken more time. “I’ll go back to shooting it in July and it should be out by December,” she promises, refuting rumours that the film’s been delayed because she gave her dates to Reema Kagti’s film with Aamir Khan. “They’re canning the action sequences now and don’t need me. The date adjustments were made by Karan (Johar) and Atul (Agnihotri), not Saif. I’d just committed to Karan’s Short Term Shaadi with Imran Khan, when the Aamir film came along in the same week. And these two months were booked for Bodyguard.”

So, what’s it like to a festival girl? “Great!” she beams. “Last Diwali, I had a blockbuster in Golmaal 3 and then, 3 Idiots brought along plenty of Christmas cheer. Hopefully, both Eid and Diwali will be big this year with Salman and Shah Rukh. I don’t mind being No. 100 on any power list as long as I top the film lists with the best banners. And on that count, 2011 is special!”

The promos for Shahrukh Khan’s superhero flick Ra.One are out and surprisingly they give the films leading lady Kareena Kapoor a miss.

Turns out that Kareena’s look in the film is being kept under wraps by SRK and will be revealed at the appropriate time. Bebo fans will be happy to know that there is plenty to look forward to in Ra.One as she has performed two sensuous item numbers.

Your wilted spirit will get a new high when you will see Kareena skimpily dressed in a very sexy outfit in the song Shake Your Booty in Ra.One. Yeah! Kareena Kapoor raises the bar, dons minimal clothes and dances to the tune of Shake Your Booty, a dance number as suggested by the name.

Bebo has no qualms if the screen burns with her fatal aadyein. She is just too hot to handle and you would believe what we say when the promos of her song ‘Shake Your Booty’ starts airing on your TV sets.

Kareena Kapoor also has another song Chhamak Challo. The song has a desi touch with dance moves choreographed by the ace dancer Ganesh Hegde. Both songs have been made for Bebo, and the expectation is that they will be instant hits.

In the movie Kareena plays main female lead opposite Shahrukh Khan. The film also stars Arjun Rampal and will release on October 26 this year.

Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan will be kissing his co-star Kareena Kapoor in his upcoming movie “Ra-One”. Shahrukh Khan has never French kissed any of his co-stars in his 22-year career in the Bollywood industry.
According to reports, Shahrukh Khan will be playing the role of a super hero in the movie. The Ra-One is the name of the new Indian super hero which means Random Access-Version.
In the movie, Shahrukh Khan will kiss Kareena Kapoor on her lips during a romantic song. The kiss will be a slight touch of lips between the two of them. But it is confirmed that it is not any ordinary Indian movie kiss, this time it is more than what appears in Indian masala movies.
When the reporters asked Kareena Kapoor about the kiss in the movie, she shared, “I have kissed many other guys in the movies before, therefore, it was not an issue for me.”
However, this might have been an issue for the married superstar’s wife, Gauri Khan. The truth about the kiss will be divulged when Shahrukh Khan shares his experience about the film. Right now, Shahrukh Khan is avoiding any talk about the film, as the date of release is seven months away.
The cast of “Ra-One” includes Shahrukh Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Arjun Rampal and Chinese actor Tom Wu. Reports confirm that Jackie Chan was also approached for a role in the movie, but he declined.
The movie is made in collaboration with a Hollywood action and special effects team. The stunts performed by Shahrukh Khan in the movie are also prepared by the stunt team hired by Khan’s production company from Hollywood.
The television broadcasting rights of “Ra-One” have been sold to Star India for 40 Crore, surpassing the 33 Crore of “3 Idiots”. “Ra-One” has now officially become the highest sold bollywood film.
The movie promotion will start in the end of August this year. The expected releasing date of “Ra-one” is told to be 26th October 2011.

Kareena Kapoor’s prominent absence from the trailers and posters of Ra.One has raised a lot of speculation as to whether or not she is important to the film. As of now, neither the 10-second teaser, nor the more detailed 30-second version shows even a hint of the leading lady.

A film enthusiast says, “One would expect a superstar like Kareena Kapoor to be a part of the 30-second trailer at least.” However, an unfazed Anubhav Sinha, the director of Ra.One maintains that Bebo is an integral part of the film. “You don’t rope in an actress like Kareena and then not utilise her potential to the fullest. Rest assured, she plays a wonderful role in the film,” asserts Anubhav, without getting into details. Although the authenticity of this claim will only be known in about six months from now, one still wonders if Bebo’s job in the film will be limited to adding some extra star value. “All I can say is that, it took me and Shah Rukh a fairly long while to zero in on an actress to play the part. And only casting of important characters takes that much time. But I won’t speak any further. As of now, just wait and watch,” says the director. Given the amount of money riding on his back, he had better do justice to the suspense.

With the beginning of Indian Premiere League, Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan has a surprise for everyone.

A source close to King Khan stated that Shah Rukh is planning to invite Kareena Kapoor to cheer for his team Kolkata Knight Riders at the IPL.

A source stated “Kareena is the female lead in Ra. One and the actor wants to club the promotion of his film with IPL.”

The source added “Kareena will soon join the Delhi schedule of Agent Vinod, but she has been asked by SRK to try to make it to the KKR matches.”

Shah Rukh had promoted his film “Ra One” during the recently held World Cup by buying an advertisement spot. And now the actor is looking forward to garner attention for his upcoming home production “Ra One” via IPL too.

Kareena Kapoor along with Saif Ali Khan and Anil Kapoor had promoted their film “Tashan” during IPL 2008. Hope this time too Kareena agrees with Shah Rukh to promote their upcoming film at the IPL.

The opening ceremony of the IPL conducted by Wizcraft will be a short and colorful affair with lots of singing and dancing performances.

The performers list include Sona Mahapatra of ‘Paas aao na’ fame along with renowned singers such as Sunidhi Chauhan, Kunal Ganjawala and Akriti Kakar.

Kareena Kapoor will add star power to the IPL which is starting today in Chennai. All the credit goes to Shahrukh Khan because King Khan is the man who brought Kareena Kapoor to the stadium. Unlike last year, Kareena will not cheer for Mumbai Indians. This time she will cheer for Kolkata Knight Riders standing by Shahrukh’s side. In this way, the duo will promote their upcoming high voltage sci-fic, ‘Ra. One’.

Shahrukh asked Bebo to present in all the matches of KKR if possible. “Kareena is the female lead in Ra. One and the actor wants to club the promotion of his film with IPL,” said a source.

A source revealed, “Kareena will soon join the Delhi schedule of Agent Vinod, but she has been asked by SRK to try to make it to the KKR matches.”

The first promo of ‘Ra. One’ was revealed to the audience during the world cup by buying an advertisement slot and now the actor is keen to promote his film again at the IPL.

The actress had promised at one of the Ra.One press meets that she will take to social networking soon.

And the time seems to have arrived for Kareena Kapoor to fulfill her promise. Buzz is that the actress, who plays the female lead in the super hero flick, will soon join Twitter to not only interact with her fans and admirers but also promote Ra.One.

An industry source said, ” Bebo is not very tech savvy and so she refrained from taking to social networking. But now with Ra.One trailers up on air and generating a lot of interest, Kareena will follow her co-star SRK who has been one of the most active actors on Twitter.”

Sources have it that with Kareena joining the network, King Khan, who has been lying low since sometime, will too get more active.

Check out Kareena Kapoor on the cover of third anniversary issue of the fashion magazine Grazia. Although Kareena couldn’t make it to the launch of the issue, as the beautiful actress is busy shooting for Agent Vinod with Saif Ali Khan, Kareena was gracious enough to “send her best wishes”.

Kareena Kapoor features on the cover of the third anniversary issue of the fashion magazine ‘Grazia’
If you are wondering if this is the first time that Kareena has been on the cover of Grazia, you are mistaken. Take a look at this old 2009 cover, where Kareena appeared in a strikingly strange avatar on the cover of the same magazine. Well, the only thing we can say about Kareena is that she is one of the most stylish of Bollywood actresses, be it her love for handbags or her choice of the best dresses.

It is no wonder then that Kareena is working with all the three Khans this year – in Ra.One with Shah Rukh Khan, in Bodyguard with Salman Khan and in Reema Kagti’s next film with Aamir Khan!

The beautiful Kapoor is also being considered to play Akshay Kumar’s moll in the Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai sequel!
