they call her a spitfire siren, who speaks her mind and in the process occasionally ends up rubbing people the wrong way. but there is no denying that kareena kapoor ranks pretty high on the casting wish-list of almost every film-maker in bollywood. if she survived refugee last year, the bubbly bebo sets the big screen on fire with the year's first real hit, mujhe kucch kehna hai.
and while yaadein has proved indigestible to many, kareena still managed to rise above ghai's disappointing flick. but for those who have seen rushes of asoka, the buzz is that karisma's kid sister has another winner on hand. no wonder most movies made with her these days revolve more around her than the hero. whether it's yaadein or sooraj barjatya's next film, main prem deewani. barjatya was not far off the mark when he called her a 'miracle'. kapoor khandaan's latest chirag is definitely keeping the family fire burning. but, more often than not, such success can get to anybody's head, leave alone a newcomer's. here's hoping that kareena will keep her feet planted firmly on ground.
