We fixed up a photo shoot with the right costumes. Since Babitaji and Karisma Kapoor were also at the shoot, I made it clear to all of them that the shoot wasn’t a confirmation that I would cast Kareena. They were okay with that at the time. After going through the photographs, I told Kareena that I felt Aishwarya Rai was fabulous and perfect for Paro; she has the aristocratic looks I required.” cited Koimoi.com.
“Kareena didn’t say a word then but some days later I found her lashing out at me in print. She accused me of backing out after having given her the signing amount and contract,” he further said.
Despite not having appeared in any of the Sanjay Leela Bhansali film, fans are still eagerly anticipating the possibility of seeing Bebo in one of his upcoming projects. Let’s wait and see.
