Ranbir and Katrina surprised everyone with strong portrayal of youngsters who were forced into politics under circumstances. Kareena Kapoor is all set to follow their footsteps.

It has been heard that Farhan Akhtar has offered Bebo a lead role in Excel Entertainment’s political drama.

The very famous filmmaker Sudhir Mishra who got Kareena to act in Chameli has been roped in to direct this film. Will the critically acclaimed actress-director duo be able to create the Chameli magic again?

Sudhir Mishra has confirmed the news saying, “Yes, we have approached Kareena Kapoor for the next film, which will be produced by Farhan Akhtar known as Bhrub.

After Chameli and Dev, Kareena Kapoor is all set to don the de-glam avatar again.
As both these films have been close to Kareena’s heart – for the unique roles, the awards and the critical acclaim they got – she now has agreed to be the plain Jane in Sudhir Mishra’s next, Dhruv . The film also stars Farhan Akhtar and Mishra’s favourite, Chitrangada Singh.

Sudhir reveals: “It is a love story set against a political background. It is about a man and a woman and their journey amid a political scenario full of turmoils. It is about how their love for each other and for their respective parties bind and separate them.”

We saw Katrina Kaif using her ‘Rajneeti’ to an advantageous effect in boosting her career. Despite facing linguistic barriers, Katrina earned quite a few brownie points for her de-glam role in Prakash Jha’s ‘Rajneeti.’
Now, actress Kareena Kapoor is donning similar shades. Grapevine has it that the ‘3 Idiots’ actress has been approached to play the lead female in a political drama helmed by Sudhir Mishra and produced by Farhan Akhtar.

Kareena Kapoor has always been one hot shot gal who has all the essential fire that is of prime importance to get into the mould of a typical Bollywood actress. Kareena Kapoor has almost been cast in every genre of films except that based on politics.
Thus if it was politics that was lacking in her genre of films, then this too is soon going to be taken over by Sudhir Mishra. Farhan Akhtar is to produce the movie. Reports are that Kareena will soon be seen donning a politician’s garb for this Sudhir Mishra project which will explore her talents as a true power performer.

In a casting coup of sorts, director Sudhir Mishra has roped in Kareena Kapoor to star with Chitrangada Singh for his film Dhruv.
While his other films Yeh Saali Zindagi (earlier titled Dil Darbadar) and Tera Kya Hoga Johnny? are yet to hit the screens, he is set to start his next project, Dhruv shortly. He has signed on Farhan Akhtar, Kareena Kapoor and Chitrangada Singh and its shooting schedule will begin after the completion of Don 2. Explaining why he chose to cast Farhan, the director says, “I chose Farhan because he is a fine actor. He plays the title role, Dhruv.”
As for the plot, the director gives an intriguing reply. He says, “It’s Devdas meets Macbeth meets Hamlet meets the Indian political scenario.”

The latest buzz from B-town is that Bollywood babe Kareena Kapoor is set to hit the red light district! Kapoor plans to do so for her next flick, Heera Mandi. Kareena is going to play the role of a sex worker. Based on her strong performance as a prostitute in Sudhir Mishra’s film Chameli in 2003, it makes perfect sense that she would be chosen to play a role of this kind again. The Sanjay Leela Bhansali film reunites Kareena Kapoor with Abhishek Bachchan onscreen. Kareena made her debut in the film Refugee where she starred in the lead opposite Abhishek.

Kareena Kapoor ought to be flattered. She is being sought rather desperately by filmmaker Sudhir Mishra for his film Dhruv.

The movie will be a modern day interpretation of Devdas. And before you yawn and mutter “not again!”, let us tell you that Mishra promises to come up with a very new and fresh take on Devdas.

In Mishra’s words, it’s going to be more of Shakespeare’s Hamlet and Sarat Chandra’s Devdas.

To play the role of Pooja (modern-day Paro), Sudhir is seeking Kareena Kapoor. And he says that no other actress except Kareena can do the role because it was written with her in mind.

Farhan Akhtar and Sudhir Mishra won’t make Dhruv, the new version of Devdas, without Kareena Kapoor as the contemporary Paro.

There was some thought over shifting Mishra’s favourite Chitrangada into Kareena’s role, but the producer-director has decided that he will not make Dhruv until Kareena agrees to do the role.

“It works only with Kareena, no one else. I’m willing to go down on my knees to get her to do the film. But she can’t say no. It’s a role specially written for her,” says Mishra.

Kareena Kapoor might have had no hit ever since ‘Jab We Met’, but her nose-diving performance at the Box Office has had little or no effect on her popularity with the filmmakers.

So even as we wait for the Kapoor lass to live upto her image, ace taskmasters like Farhan Akhtar and Sudhir Mishra are intensely chasing the actress for their modern version of ‘Devdas’ titled ‘Dhruv’. And Kareena has been offered the role of none other than Paro.

According to sources, even though Mishra’s favourite Chitrangada was initially thought for fitting into Kareena’s role, the producer-director team decided against it.
