Kareena Kapoor is peeved! The reason: No sooner did her latest film MAIN PREM KI DIWANI HOON hit the theatres, her mobile was flooded with SMSs from some unknown sources informing her that the film had been rejected. Imagine, the film had barely opened a few hours ago, with all shows full for the next 4-5 days in advance itself, and people were trying to pull it down by stating that the collections had started falling already. Can you beat that?, Kareena [who was in Durban, South Africa for a stage show] called this writer to express her displeasure.
One so-called trade analyst had the audacity to make a ridiculous statement that it was a soft porn film, she fumes, I SMS-ed back that he should act his age, giving a nasty rejoinder to his message. The film has set the box-office registers jingling. Isn't that what matters in the final tally? Let's go through the box-office figures and then arrive at conclusions.
But Kareena's mood changes for the better as we start discussing the new films in her kitty. She has signed three prestigious projects Sanjay Leela Bhansali's BAJIRAO MASTANI, Deepa Mehta's new project and Tips' forthcoming film with Abbas-Mustan as directors.
Putting to rest all speculation that BAJIRAO MASTANI has been shelved, Kareena says that the project is very much on and will roll in April next year. The final star cast is Salman, Kareena and Rani Mukherji. In fact, Rani and Kareena will appear together for the second time, after MUJHSE DOSTI KAROGE.
Deepa Mehta's new film, says Kareena, will star Rahul Khanna as her co-star. It will be made in Hindi and English simultaneously and would be premiered at the Cannes next year, she divulges. The film will roll in October this year.
With Abbas-Mustan too, this would be her second film, after AJNABEE. Vivek Oberoi is her co-star here.
