Kareena Kapoor - Most Influential Woman in Bollywood ???

If Forbes can do it, then, why not Verve? We are indeed talking about the lifestyle magazine Verve's latest issue that has profiled the top female achievers of this year.

The best part of this list is that there are no rankings or ratings for the achievers. They are simply profiled. And true to the saying that there is no bigger business than showbiz, it is indeed Kareena Kapoor, the reigning queen of Bollywood, who features on the magazine cover. Showing no signs of slowing down when it comes to posing for covers, one surely must've lost the count of the number of magazines that she has posed for this year.


Well, Kareena kapoor is one chic, for whom 'over-exposure' just does not hold any water. The other achievers from the film industry include Aishwarya Bachchan, Preity Zinta, Katrina Kaif, Ekta Kapoor, Farah Khan, and Mira Nair. Overall, this is a collector's issue and one should preserve it...till the new list comes in!

Saif Ali Khan romances Kareena Kapoor

Saif Ali Khan will romance real life ladylove Kareena Kapoor in a new Karan Johar production.

The couple has been signed on by Rensil D’ Silva of Rang De Basanthi fame who will direct this movie. Saif and Bebo will pair for the first time in a Karan Johar movie.

But this movie is not the bubbly romance with foreign locales that Johar has perfected. It will be a dark gritty drama with Saif as a terrorist. Kareena will play his ladylove.

This movie is going to be an interesting watch as Karan Johar makes a U-turn from his usual lavish set, dances filled romantic comedies.

Saif Ali Khan, who is known to play rather typical characters like Sameer in Dil Chahta Hai, Karan Singh Rathod in Ek Haseena Thi, Cyrus Mistry in Being Cyrus and Langda Tyagi in Omkara, is again ready to play a hatke role.He will play a terrorist in Karan Johar’s next production. The untitled film will be directed by Rang De Basanti writer, Rensil D’Silva.

Says a source close to the film, “The story is a far cry from the usual Karan’s films. There will be no designer glam sham or naach gaana. It is a hard-hitting subject. Karan loved Rensil’s script so much that he decided to produce it. He also gave Rensil the freedom to choose the actors to justify his script. That’s how Rensil decided to cast Saif. He plays a meticulous and urban-educated terrorist. There is also an interesting romantic track between him and the leading lady, Kareena,” adds the source.
