Imtiaz Ali is Liar

Director Imtiaz Ali is self-confessed liar to which Bebo firmly concurs. When asked about how he happens to tell the story in cinematic language so brilliantly to which he gives the explanation, "I have lied a lot when I was in school. I use to lie to my teachers about home and at home I would lie about my teachers. But now I blatantly lie through my films. Difference is that I use to get beaten up then and now I get awards for it."

And later when Imtiaz confesses to the media that he thinks of Kareena when he writes a film. Bebo who is still not gotten over with the fact that she was not a part of 'Love Aaj Kal' opposite her beau that too in her Saifu's home production reacts saying, "He is a liar if he says this. Then why doesn't he cast me if he thinks of me while writing." The director is as of now mulling over casting Ranbir Kapoor for his next flick. He though admits to write films having Kareena on his mind; once again Kareena would not be in his film. "I have not yet signed Ranbir but yes I have approached him to which he is yet to give a final nod. So once it is finally on paper we would announce. I can't cast Kareena for this film as they happen to be the first cousins." So this time he had youngest Kapoor on his mind. What a brazen liar!

Kareena is also quoted as saying..

As for doing Imtiaz Ali's film, she wonders. "But isn't he taking Ranbir for that film? How can I work with my brother? All the heroines should thank me for not being able to do the film, for that way they get a chance to work with him !" she laughs.

I don't know about the liar part. But Imtiaz clarified on facebook that he never made that comment about writing with Kareena in mind for every script. He said that the quote was made up.

That was his third flick, no?
The first was Socha Na Tha. Sweet and simple movie.
I hated LAK, it was so boring. LOL, but I don't want his movies to fail. Not good to wish failure upon others. 😛😛

Well not technically a liar since he said quite a few times before the release of the film that LAK was nothing like JWM.

Eh, I've liked all his movies so far (and a lot of people I spoke to felt the same way). Keep on doing what you want to Imtiaz - its worked so far. 😛

LOL, who knows what the future holds. Though, he's casting Ranbir, so I am hoping for it to work. 😛
I like Ranbir. He's a good actor. 😃
His next movie may not be like his previous one just like his previous one was not like his previous one. 😆
