Yes, after Deepika Padukone, it's Kareena Kapoor who has gone directly to take potshots at fellow actress Katrina Kaif and her foreign origin. But before you jump to conclusions, you ought to know that the digs are a part of Bebo's script in Heroine.
According to Zee News, Kareena takes jibes at another actress with remarkable similarities to Katrina in a single of the scenes from the film. Apparently, while interacting with a journalist within the scene, the 'Heroine' made fun of the actress, claiming that the latter got successful only because her boyfriend (Salman Khan) was a large star.
Not just this, Bebo even remarks on how the actress' passport need to be checked to spot her real name, age and country of origin. Interestingly, rumour has it that even the woman playing the 'foreign' actress is meant to resemble Katrina.
Kareena was reportedly reluctant to try this scene (possibly for its glaring insinuations), but was convinced by director Madhur Bhandarkar who reasoned that several aspiring actresses did come to India to take a look at their luck in films.
Katrina's passport had become a much-talked about issue when Deepika Padukone had quipped about it on Koffee With Karan. Sonam Kapoor, too had taken digs at Katrina's dressing sense on the Cannes film festival.
Is Katrina making Bollywood heroines insecure along with her growing fanbase and demanding acclaim? The cost of popularity, we guess!
