All the speculations regarding UTV Motion Pictures and Madhur Bhandarkar’s most ambitious film project ‘Heroine’ finally come to an end as actress Kareena Kapoor agrees to step into the shoes of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and play the lead role in ‘Heroine’.

‘Heroine’ has been facing obstacles since beginning; first Kareena who was the actual choice for the role refused the film as she was not happy with the script and had date issues. Then,Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was signed for the film but after 10 days of shoot,she announced her pregnancy. There were talks of her getting replaced by Tabu or Priyanka Chopra. But no one was ready to step into Ash’s shoes with the fear of offending the Bachchans. Then there were rumors that the film was shelved. 

But now ending all those speculations Kareena Kapoor confirmed that she will be playing the lead in Madhur Bhandarkar’s much-talked about film ‘Heroine’. Considering that Madhur had written the script keeping Bebo in mind,he will now be a happy man. Kareena’s dates,fee etc are currently being worked out. 

Bebo is surely going to be envied by all her contemporaries as she has just wrapped up the shoot for Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Ra.One’,and is gearing up for her next release ‘Bodyguard’ with Salman Khan.
