Personal circumstances willed it otherwise. In the last decade, many things have changed. From a newbie, Bebo has become the No 1 heroine in the trade. She is in a position today to call the shots. And yet somewhere within her, she has an unfulfilled desire.

Says a source close to the actress, “Bebo has won several awards for Best Actress. She has to her credit a couple of Bollywood’s biggest hits Jab We Met and 3 Idiots. But, just like she craves to do exceptional work, she also has this long standing desire to team up with Abhishek Bachchan.”
The actress admits that according to her, Abhishek is one of the most talented heroes in showbiz. “If a producer was to cast Abhishek and me together, I would definitely be happy,” she says. And though she will not discuss this subject at length, there are people in the trade who feel Kareena and Abhishek will make a winning screen pair and the filmmaker who casts them would have managed a coup. An insider says, “On her part, Kareena carries no baggage as far as Abhishek is concerned. Should there ever be a proposal to cast them together, she’ll be only too happy to sign the film.”
Meanwhile Kareena starts shooting for Agent Vinod in two weeks. She plays a negative character in it, while beau Saif Ali Khan plays the title role. Kareena plays a Pakistani CIA agent in the film, and sports five different looks -- a first for her. She will be wearing different looks with prosthetics.
Kareena is naturally very excited about her role. She believes AV will be a cool and intelligent film. She calls it a very "Saif style" film. Kareena's character works for a bunch of corporate honchos who want to rake in the profits from a war-like scenario in the Asian subcontinent. But she is actually a spy for the Pakistani government. What is interesting is that she and Saif are not romantically paired in the film.
Kareena says, "I am very excited to be a part of Shriram's film. It's a great script. I am happy that Agent Vinod is starting soon. I am working on my various looks for the film. It's something I haven't attempted before."
Speaking on her non-stop schedule, Kareena say’s, "I am planning a break but I don’t think I will get it till August. I am shooting back-to-back with three films- ‘Golmaal 3’, ‘Ra One’, and ‘Agent Vinod.’ After the ‘Golmaal 3’ shoot ends, I will leave for my shooting in London and Morocco for ‘Ra One’ and ‘Agent Vinod.’"
Talking about ‘Golmaal 3’, Kareena seemed quite excited about her upcoming flick and said, "In the evening, we hang out together -- Ajay, Tusshar and me- have dinner and going to the gym together. We are one happy unit here."
