After winning rave reviews for her performance in ‘Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu’, Kareena Kapoor might just be making her foray into direction.
Rumour has it that producer Karan Johar will be offering Bebo a film to direct under the Dharma Productions banner. Apparently, Bebo helped beau Saif Ali Khan on the sets of ‘Agent Vinod’. So much so, that she started taking keen interest in the process of filmmaking on the sets of KJO’s EMAET. Speaking to a daily, a source said, “Kareena and Karan are like soul siblings. She discusses a lot of ideas with him. And she also got to be a part of the behind-the-scenes team in EMAET. It was during the shooting that Karan realised how great an aptitude Bebo has for cinema. In fact, she gave very crucial tips for revising and improving the script too.” In fact, Kareena’s valuable suggestions were all incorporated in the film. “Karan has asked her to get on board as a formal assistant and then eventually direct a film,” added the source. An impressed director of EMAET, Shakun Batra said, “There were at least five scenes where Kareena felt her character Riana was similar to Geet in ‘Jab We Met’.
She marked those in the script and suggested how we could change them. Throughout the film’s making, Kareena was full of sensible, intelligent suggestions.” Well, her grandfather Raj Kapoor and father Randhir Kapoor have both been good directors and if Kareena does take up direction in the near future, we will know it is her genes talking!
