WISHING A SIZZLING BIRTHDAY TO BEBO

Had anyone anticipated that this ‘Refugee’ girl would ever grab the eyeballs? Or make men drool at her bootylicious figure? Or attract girls with her style and fashion? She first stepped into the screens with this movie – sans makeup, glamour and shine, with a chubby personality.

People, who were all-praise for her sister in those days, had hardly thought that she will ever make it big in Bollywood. And now look at Kareena Kapoor and you can see for yourself that turnaround in her. From being just another member of the well-known Kapoor clan to soon-expected-to-be bahu of Pataudis, Kareena is contentedly cushioned in the lap of Bollywood these days.

With ‘Kabhie Khushi Kabhie Gham’, Kareena showed what a Bebo she is proving what is she best at! Then came ‘Chameli’, another twist to her career, enriching her status and showing the audience that she can’t be only an arm-candy alone. Films like ‘Dev’, ‘Omkara’ too portrayed the brilliant actor within her, which reflects if given the right film. Her filmography will be incomplete if one forgets her as Geet. She successfully made this character to preside over everyone’s heart and thus won several awards hands down. ‘Jab We Met’ truly won audience due to this beauty’s bubbliness, complimenting the silent Shahid.

Then came a series of comedies, featuring this oomph gal and sadly you never got to see the substance from this actress. But one cannot stop expecting, for Kareena has ‘Main Aurr Mrs Khanna’, ‘Kurbaan’, ‘Three Idiots’, ‘Agent Vinod’ – where one can look forward to a different Bebo.

Today being her birthday, Kareena would have been busy with her work; shooting the remaining portions of Rajkumar Hirani’s ‘Three Idiots’ with Aamir. But thanks to her co-star, Bebo is happily away in Rajasthan with her beau Saif to celebrate. Sources said Aamir told Raju to postpone the shoot if need be, but let Kareena off to celebrate her birthday. Well, that’s a nice twist for the actress now!

We wish her all the success and best wishes for her future. Keep sizzling Bebo!

BEBO BRANDED AGAIN

Kareena Kapoor has signed up for an elite Italian watch company for a huge amount. Bebo will be seen in the garb of a cat woman in the ad.

Says a source close to the actress, "The campaign was shot by Prasad Naik along with a foreign team of technicians. Her look is very Lara Croft black flying suit, tightly coiled hair and a whipcord body.

It's totally different from the usual watch campaigns that have been shot till now. It's a very sporty ad with a classy look as it's a hi-end watch.

Kareena is very keen to do an action film so when they had a Lara Croft concept to the ad, she was very excited."

KAREENA AND PREITY GET GROOVING...

Preity Zinta shot for a song with Kareena Kapoor for Main Aur Mrs Khanna.

Now, there may be not anything new about two actresses sharing the screen space, but it was different this time around because both these ladies shared pretty cold vibes sometime back. It was Kal Ho Na Ho that had sparked of a war of words between the two. Though, there were no fireworks when the two shot for a song for the movie. In fact we hear Preity, who was down with high fever, declined to stall the shooting. On the sets the two got along fine and danced their hearts out.

BEBO TURNS BLACKBERRY ADDICT

Kareena Kapoor is one lucky girl. Although her birthday is on September 21 she has by now been gifted a Blackberry as a birthday gift by close friend and designer Shabina Khan.

Says Bebo, "Right now, I am just learning the hang of BB and telling all my friends to add me to their friends list so I can ping them."

Is the chote nawab Saif Ali Khan on BB too? Maybe Kareena can gift him one now.
