Kareena Kapoor turns journalist in 'Satyagrah'

Kareena Kapoor has graduated to roles of a more mature kind. In Prakash Jha's Satyagrah, she plays a seasoned political journalist with a strong ideological bent to her personality. Her character is modelled on CNN's Christiane Amanpour, who is known for her humane and compassionate reportage on the worst kind of atrocities against humankind for nearly three decades.

A source close to the project said, "Whenever we've seen television journalists in Hindi films, they're invariably modelled on Barkha Dutt. Prakash has not only asked Kareena to model her character on Christiane Amanpour but he will also make the actress watch tapes of Amanpour's news coverage and her show on CNN. Prakash wants Kareena to understand how much heart Amanpour brings to her news reportage."

In the film, Kareena will also follow Amanpour's dress code: chic and fashionable yet formal and not too severe. The source said, "Prakash doesn't want her to follow the routine dress code of salwar kameez and sarees. The most stylishly cut executive suits modelled on Amanpour's dress style will be designed for Kareena."

On his part, Jha told us, "From the time I wrote the journalist's character in Satyagrah, I had Christiane Amanpour in mind. I wrote Kareena's character thinking only of Amanpour. I love the deep connectivity she establishes with the viewers with her compassionate reportage and analysis."

What's more, she has a love angle with Ajay Devgn but in the words of the source, "There is no coochie cooing, no singing and dancing, and no running around trees. It's a very practical, mature kind of relationship that doesn't follow the typical Bollywood norms."
