Kareena
Kapoor
in
a
candid
and
emotional
conversation
with
Subhash
K.
Jha.
Bebo
talks
abour
her
relationship
with
Saif
Ali
Khan
and
her
upcoming
movies
3
Idiots
and
Kambakth
Ishq.
What
are
you
doing
in
this
guy-oriented
cast
of
Raj
Kumar
Hirani's
3
Idiots?
I've
an
effective
role.
And
no
power
on
this
earth
would've
made
me
miss
the
chance
of
working
with
Raj
Kumar
Hirani.
I'm
a
lucky
girl.
I'm
being
offered
one
film
every
day.
I
don't
have
time
to
read
scripts.
I'll
do
so
in
March
2009
after
I
finish
my
current
lot
of
films
which
includes
Karan
Johar's
film
with
Saif.
Normally,
a
Bollywood
actress
does
about
forty
days'
work.
My
directors
are
taking
about
a
hundred
days
with
me.
I've
already
given
Karan
a
hundred
days
for
his
film
directed
by
Rensil
D'Silva.
Looking
back
it
has
been
a
turbulent
year
for
you?
I
wouldn't
call
it
turbulent.
It's
an
exciting
phase
in
my
life
when
so
many
things
rushed
down
on
me
at
the
same
time.
The
last
year
was
a
turning-point
in
my
life.
But
the
end-result
is
happy.
Both
professionally
and
emotionally
I
think
I've
come
out
a
winner.
I've
tried
to
be
as
dignified
about
my
personal
life
as
possible.
As
for
my
work,
God
has
been
kind.
Do
you
think
you're
lucky?
It's
not
just
luck.
I've
worked
really
hard
to
get
here.
It's
my
perseverance
that
has
got
me
where
I
am.
And
I
owe
my
success
to
no
one
else
but
myself.
Perseverance?
Hmm....You've
begun
to
sound
like
Saif.
Yes,
my
vocabulary
has
increased.
He
makes
me
memorize
some
pages
of
the
Oxford
dictionary
every
day
(laughs).
That's
a
joke.
But
seriously,
he
does
speak
very
well.
So
I'm
trying
to
catch
up.
OK...a
really
difficult
question.
Who's
your
favourite
Khan?
Ah-ha.
Do
I
have
to
spell
it
out?
Is
there
anything
you
want?
I
have
it
all.
For
me
the
journey
as
an
actress
has
just
begun.
And
I'm
not
going
to
shift
focus
from
it
for
4-5
years.
No
marriage
for
4-5
years?
I
know
I
definitely
want
to.
But
not
at
least
for
the
next
three
years.
The
work
I'm
doing
is
giving
me
so
much
satisfaction.
No
27-year
old
can
ask
for
more.
People
gave
your
relationship
with
Saif
no
more
than
six
months?
There's
absolutely
no
room
for
such
negativity
in
my
life.
I
only
have
place
for
people
who
are
positive
and
who
make
me
happy
by
sharing
in
my
happiness.
This
is
the
best
phase
in
my
life.
And
I
feel
I'm
in
a
place
where
I've
never
been
before.
As
an
actress
I
feel
everyone
and
that
includes
me,
expects
things
from
me
that
are
not
generally
expected
from
Bollywood
actresses
except
maybe
a
Kajol
or
my
sister
Karisma.
Do
you
get
enough
time
with
Saif?
He's
extremely
loving
and
supportive.
He
knows
how
long
it's
taken
me
to
get
the
work
that
I'm
getting
now.
In
fact
the
best
phase
of
my
career
started
when
Saif
came
into
my
life.
Now
he's
enjoying
this
phase
in
my
life
along
with
me.
That
makes
this
phase
even
more
special.
The
only
thing
I
miss
is
time
with
my
family
and
Saif.
When
I
finish
this
schedule
I
head
straight
to
Venice
for
Sajid
Nadiadwala's
Kambakht
Ishq.
Are
you
and
Saif
doing
a
lot
of
endorsements
together?
We're
offered
a
lot
of
endorsements.
But
we
are
not
doing
any
except
a
shampoo
brand.
But
we'll
soon
be
signing
on
for
endorsements.
And
we're
doing
another
film
for
Ashtavinayak.
That
starts
in
April
2009.
We
want
it
to
be
a
fast
and
furious
action
film.
Something
larger-than-life.
Saif
is
working
very
closely
with
the
producers.
He's
trying
to
lock
in
on
the
script
and
director.
You've
changed
so
much
in
appearance
and
behaviour?
Ha,
that's
what
you
think.
I'm
still
the
same.
It's
just
that
I'm
so
busy.
I've
been
working
constantly.
On
top
of
that,
my
house
is
being
done
up.
There
are
a
dozen
things
demanding
my
attention.
I
get
300
sms-es
a
day.
I
can't
answer
each
one
of
them
personally.
