.From 13 to 33, from Bebo to Begum Jitesh Pillai tries to summarise the incredible Kareena Kapoor Khan
She’s moody, she’s whimsical, she’s fickle. She’s warm, she’s caring, she openhearted. In short, she’s a bundle of contradictions. She can be very funny. And she doesn’t even try. She’s a dial a quote, her asides unprintable.That’s Kareena Kapoor Khan. The girl I love to love. There are days when I want to hug her tight and there are days when I want to fix her with will-peel-paint glare. That’s been my equation with Bebo. I had first met her when she was of all 13 at the music launch of her sister Karisma Kapoor’s film Anari. Instantly, a connection was made and I knew a star was waiting to be born. I remember her loud yakking and being excited about watching the trial of Dil Toh Pagal Hai as she was taking off for world tours with sister Lolo.
