Glamourous actress Kareena Kapoor is known for her ultra-glamorous fashion sense, but now she is all set to go de-glam for her role in Siddharth Malhotra’s desi version of Step Mom.
Kareena who will be attending workshops for her role says, “The last time I rehearsed for a part was for Vishal Bharadwaj’s Omkara. But that was a more unconventional film and role where I had to get into a milieu and character I knew nothing about. But Stepmom is urban and very contemporary. I play a very normal metro-centric working girl.” “I walk, talk, dress like an ordinary working girl. I’ll be using no makeup.”
Bebo will also sport a new hairdo in the flick,”I couldn’t cut my hair as planned because of continuity clashes. And I didn’t want to cut my long hair. But I’m going for a new hairstyle.”
Lets wait to see Kareena in her new avatar. Desi version of step-mom also starrs Kajol.

Check out the statue above, it’s Bollywood heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor turned into a bronze statue for his flick Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani. Apparently Ranbir has a habit of talking to a bronze statue in his colony and later he realizes that the statue resembles him.
Director RajKumar Santoshi says,“When I explained to Ranbir the scenes, he was extremely enthusiastic about turning into a statue; even though the entire process of becoming one was tedious and painful. Once in make-up, Ranbir could only stand, there was no way he could even sit, forget lying down for those long hours. He had to keep on standing till all the shots were canned. Yet, he went through the paces with great zest.”
Ranbir was made into a statue after four-hours of make-up, a source says, “After the gruelling shoot, all that Ranbir could think was to move around. The freedom to move around after having stood like a stone at one place put him on a different high.”
