Remember Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam (1999)? The film went directly to become considered one of Ash’s biggest hits but not many know that Sanjay Leela Bhansali desired to rope in an excessively young Kareena Kapoor for the role. Things didn’t determine then, but now Bebo is elated to team up with Bhansali in his new film, Ram Leela, opposite Ranveer Singh.
“He (Bhansali) and i've desired to interact for a very long time now. And yes, he had offered me Hum Dil De… but at the moment I USED TO BE too young. Plus, I USED TO BE also going abroad for higher studies. So I couldn’t take in that supply. Then Bajirao Mastani came up, but unfortunately that still didn’t determine. But take a look at my luck, eventually I needed to be the Sanjay Leela Bhansali heroine,” says Bebo.
Kareena, who's busy shooting for Madhur Bhandarkar’s Heroine, says she is happy about Ram Leela for diverse reasons. “For an actor, such films are landmarks. I'M looking ahead to working with Ranveer too. He was fantastic in Band Baaja Baarat,” she says. It’s interesting to notice that Bebo was also the primary choice for Heroine before it went to Aishwarya after which finally came back to her.
These days Bebo is within the news for her October 16 wedding plans. In fact, she was bombarded with queries at a up to date press conference. “But I won’t speak about it in any respect. Otherwise, I REALLY LIKE press conferences because journalists get a hold of interesting questions. But I answer only those questions that interest me,” she says with a grin.
Lately, Bebo made news a few possible Zoya Akhtar film with cousin Ranbir Kapoor. “I love Zoya. She is an out of this world director. We've mentioned certain subjects but nothing is confirmed presently. I share an excellent rapport with her,” says Bebo.
