If Aishwarya and Bipasha can do it so can Kareena Kapoor! And no we aren't talking about their antics off screen but on screen. Kareena will be seen in a bikini in her upcoming film Tashan. Sources close to the film say that the actress is working very hard to pull of the scene.
"This will be a first for Bebo… she is working out a lot and making sure she is careful about what she eats because she wants to look perfect in the bikini on screen. As it is for the role in the film she had to work very hard to achieve the shape they wanted for her character in Tashan. From yoga to time in the gym to her diet, Bebo is being extra careful about everything," says the source.
The shot will be canned right at the end in February next year in Geneva. "They will be doing it in the end to give her more time. Wearing a bikini on screen is no joke and Bebo is quite stressed about it," says the source "She doesn't want to leave anything to chance and is being very particular about what she will wear, where it will be shot…literally everything!"
Kareena is believed to be pinning a lot of hopes on this Yash Raj film. "Kareena knows how important this film is for her. It is a Yash Raj film at the end of the day and considering that she spent close to a year jobless at home she needs this film to work. And therefore if it involves losing a lot of weight – which she already has – or wearing a bikini or anything else then she will do it just so she can look hot on screen," says our source.
Yash Raj's Leading Bikinis
For a banner that is known to make family films reflecting true Indian values and family traditions, of late Yash Raj has gotten quite bold in its filming. Ever since Aditya Chopra took over the reigns from his dad Yash Chopra, the banner's films seem to be in the mood to have all its leading ladies pose in bikinis before the camera. First we had to see Kajol's younger sister, Tanisha, in a bikini in Neel 'N' Nikki. Then Esha Deol came out of the water looking super hot in Dhoom followed by Dhoom 2 where Bipasha took up the challenge of wearing a bikini. And now in Yash Raj's upcoming film Tashan, leading lady Kareena Kapoor will be seen in a bikini. So one can't help but wonder who will be next in line. Could it be Rani Mukherji who is a part of almost all Yash Raj films or would that be too bold for the actress who is supposedly the next daughter-in-law of the Chopra family?
