Until recently, it was impossible for two actresses to get along. Not anymore, it seems. For Kareena Kapoor, who has had spats with Bipasha Basu during Ajnabee, now gets along with every other heroine that she works with.
During Abbas-Mustan's Ait-raaz, Priyanka Chopra and Kareena hit it off like a house on fire. The two ladies have just returned from a wedding performance together in Antwerp, Belgium. Malaika Arora and sister, Amrita (who is Kareena's best friend) also accompanied the all-female entourage. The four ladies had a blast, and all matters of the ego were completely forgotten.
And now comes news of another new saheli for Kareena. She got along so well with Konkona Sen Sharma while shooting for Vishal Bhardwaj's Omkara, that even Vishal was taken aback.
Kissa 'K' ka
"They really bonded," says Vishal. "I had always heard of actresses having cat fights when they work together. But Kareena and Konkona really disappointed me. They were really good together. Maybe the letter 'K' did it."
In fact, Kareena even forgot that she was at one time supposed to do Konkona's role in Madhur Bhandarkar's Page 3. Says Konkona, "Kareena is really lovely! Very warm and and friendly. Thank God she was there! We were working under really hard conditions. She made it so much easier to cope."
