Bebo has a date with Julia Roberts
AYA DRONA , TNN 26 September 2009, 12:00am IST

That Julia Roberts is shooting for Ryan Murphy's Eat, Pray, Love in Pataudi, everybody knows.

What nobody is aware of is that the Hollywood superstar met up with the Begum of Pataudi, Sharmila Tagore, and expressed the desire to meet actor Saif Ali Khan and his girlfriend Kareena Kapoor. Julia was particularly keen to meet Kareena when she learned that Bebo will be playing her part in Karan Johar's Hindi adaptation of the Hollywood hit Step-Mom.

Kareena is currently prepping to shoot a romantic song with Aamir Khan for Raj Kumar Hirani's Three Idiots at a Mumbai studio. However, after hearing from Sharmila Tagore, the actress' manager has now sent a request to co-star Aamir asking if she can be let off for a day to fly to Pataudi. Karan is in London for the promotion of his film Wake Up Sid, but sources say, that his company is also keen to have Kareena meet Julia.

And, Chotte Nawab Saif has also got into the act, he and lady love are expected to host a dinner for Julia at the family's royal seat in Pataudi.

The Hollywood actress is accompanied on the trip by her four-year-old twins Hazel and Phinnaeus and two-year-old son Henry. Due to strict security instructions, neither Saif nor Kareena are able to make an official comment on the arrangements. But a source close to the actress said, "Bebo is as keen as Julia to make this dinner happen. Ever since she signed Step-Mom she's been keen to interact closely with Julia."

Whether the Chhoti Begum of Pataudi gets her wish is something we'll know in the next two days.

Jab We Met Julia

When we met Julia (yes, we got to see her one-on-one, and though we tried a conversation too, her bouncers came in the way and when they did, we could see nothing else – just mounds of muscle!), she was dressed in black cropped pants and a black sleeveless tee.

She looked cool and unperturbed by the people around her. Everything about her arrival at the Leela Kempinski Hotel, Gurgaon was unstarry. In fact, she chose the residential entry to the hotel over entering from the hotel's main lobby. There was no flutter before her arrival, no security guys or hotel staff ran hither thither and neither did we spot a fleet of cars to mark her presence. She came in an unaccompanied vehicle with three members from her personal security from Pataudi Village. So, while shoppers walked up and down the driveway (some coming out with bagfuls of grocery), Julia stepped out of her black hired car and walked into the hotel – calm and composed. She'll spend some time with her children at the hotel, as she takes a break from shooting at the Pataudi Village. Her children were already at the hotel when she arrived.

Kareena should definitely meet up with Julia esp. since she considers her one of her faves.

LMFAO, what a load of bogus. I bet Julia Roberts hasn't even gotten a clue about who the hell Kareena is. And had Julia Roberts had the knowledge that Karan Johar is copying 'Stepmom', the first thing she'd do is sue his ass for copyright infringement.

Seriously, this article is bullshit. Bollywood likes to give itself too much importance into thinking that Hollywood, and the rest of the world, is in love with them. Best case scenario? Julia probably met up with Saif's mom, since she's the Queen around there, or whatever, and Sharmila was probably like 'OH HEY WANNA MEET MY SON AND HIS CONSTIPATED GF?!'

Plus, you really think Kareena is going to tell her 'HEY JULES, WE'RE LIKE, UH, COPYING THAT LAME MOVIE YOU MADE, WHERE YOU MARRIED THAT OLD HAG AND THEN BRAINWASHED HIS CHILDREN'. That isn't going to down well with Julia.

^^^^ 🤣 youre like 110% correct. starting with the whole KI publicity.
now this is a PR machine working overtime! i think everyone should hire the person kareena has in charge of her PR, they do a damn good job keeping her in the news even when its not news worthy.
but i think KJO got the rights to the movie.

K-Jo got the rights to the movie? Well then, halleluja!

*shoots self*

My dreams of suing K-Jo have been shattered. 😭

Anyways, I do agree, Kareena does have a very smart PR machine working overtime. From being offered practically every film in Bollywood, to meeting Julia Roberts, and even spooning with Barack Obama, Kareena has done it all.

Though I doubt this story has much truth to it, KJo did legally acquire the rights to make Stepmom from Sony. Hence there is no issue of copyright infringement. So that will not be a problem.

oh wow Julie's GK about India is very low i guess that she herself wants to meet the most talked about couple of India when there are more prominent personalities in India like SRK, Amitabh, the Gandhi's, the Pm, The President, etc.

And what will she do by meeting Bebo?? teach her how to copy herself only?? 🤓

Karan has officially aquired the rights. ANd kareena said that Dharma will be working with Sony to produce the stepmom remake, so its not impossible that julia knows about Stepmom. And she's shooitng around Pataudi aint she?
It might be true, ti might not. Not too concerned, but article's cool.
