Madhur won't let Kareena party in peace

It was recently reported that all is not well between director Madhur Bhandarkar and actress Kareena Kapoor, as the actress rejected his offer to play the lead in his ambitious project, 'Heroine'. But at the recently held Bombay Times 16th anniversary party, the two were quite inseparable.

The duo indulged in an animated conversation, ignoring everything and everybody around them and we couldn't help but wonder what they might be discussing. Probably, the director was trying hard to convince the girl to sign on the dotted lines. He might have even tried to lure Kareena into it by promising her a National award, considering that Priyanka Chopra and Kangna Ranaut, the actresses of his previous film 'Fashion', both won the prestigious honour.

But why would Kareena not do Madhur's 'Heroine'? The actress, who has impressed all with films like 'Omkara' and 'Chameli', seems to be completely focusing towards commercial films in recent times. And this, even if the roles aren't very rich or don't have much scope to perform. Trade pundits are of the opinion that this might be a conscious effort. An analyst tells us, "Kareena has turned 30 recently, and she is conscious that her streak as one of Bollywood's leading actresses will not stay with her forever."

However, the actress denies that there's any planning involved. She says, "It's just that a lot of such offers are coming my way. And besides who would not want to be a part of 'Golmaal', it's the first trilogy in India. Who would say a no to a 'Ra.One' with SRK or an 'Agent Vinod' with Saif and a 'Bodyguard' with Salman?" she asks.

The actress further reveals, "I do miss doing a 'Chameli', 'Omkara' or a 'Dev' but I can do that anytime. And plus I have proved that I am a good actress."
