However, Preity who happens to be a good friend of Saif was giving cold stares to Kareena and vice versa. They never spoke to each other, nor exchanged pleasantries. Kareena wasn't talking to any one else but Saif and Saif in turn was at his comfy-best flaunting his new ladylove.
A source at the finale says that the two actors who arrived together with Bebo’s best friend Amrita in tow. “Kareena and Saif walked in together and unlike previous occasions they were more than happy to stop and pose for the cameras and talk to the media. They weren’t trying to hide anything,” says our source.
Joined by Amrita Arora, the trio was seen sharing a laugh on more than one occasion. Amrita has been quite an integral part of this blossoming relationship between Bebo and Saif – Amrita and Usman joined them for their recent impromptu trip to Goa, then to Delhi and was often spotted with them on dinners in the city.
Sitting side by side in the auditorium, the couple was often seen whispering to one another. “When they walked in, everyone was looking at them and Kareena knew the cameras were on her but she couldn’t care. Kareena made sure that she interacted with everyone who was present with Saif on her side. She wasn’t looking to hide her relationship at all,” adds Amrita.
Reports of a romantic linkup between Kareena and 37-year-old Saif first surfaced while the two were shooting for Yash Raj Films Tashan on locales in Ladakh and Rajasthan. Then came the news of Kareena celebrating her 27th birthday last month with a small party for select friends including Saif. Saif and Kareena also hit a nightclub in Delhi. When a photographer clicked them hugging they bullied him and deleted the photograph’s.
As their romance intensified, Kareena unceremoniously dumped former beau Shahid Kapoor while he was shooting for Aziz Mirza's Lucky Charm in Toronto, Canada. However, Shahid Kapoor who had been stoically maintaining silence for sometime also quipped on the sets of the Sony show Jhalak Dikhla Ja in the course of an interview, “For all you girls out there, I am single and ready to mingle!” making his break up with Kareena Kapoor official.
However Kareena's mom Babita was initially very upset when the buzz surrounding her daughter with Saif became stronger. She, it is learnt, had confronted her and expressed her displeasure over her choice. Knowing well Saif's history with the women in his life, she did not want Bebo to be just another conquest in the Chote Nawab's life. She was happy before that finally her daughter had found a person who had brought in a lot of better changes in her and was in a stable relationship. But Kareena didn't pay any attention to her or sis Karishma's requests and went ahead on her alliance with Saif. Last heard, Babita is still upset with Kareena but has stopped discussing this topic with her knowing well her stubborn nature.
