New Delhi: The new jewellery line partnership between Bollywood stars Kareena Kapoor Khan and Alia Bhatt delighted fans, who then demanded a feature film starring both actors. Kareena claimed that the two meet frequently these days and are manifesting a movie.
Alia and Kareena co-starred in Udta Punjab, although their on-screen time together was minimal. Their off-screen lives, though, have a lot in common. When asked whether Alia's career trajectory resembled her own in an interview with Mid-Day, Kareena described the younger actor as "gifted."
Talking about Alia, Kareena said, "I think that she is truly gifted. She is such a spectacular actor and her choices are also…like she does these commercial big ones and then she will do a Darlings. So, she likes to do this, which is great."
Kareena said that she had never met Alia as a youngster, but that their relations had increased after the latter's marriage to Kareena's cousin Ranbir Kapoor.
"As a child I never met her. I didn’t know her as much. But of course now she is a relative and in the family. I think now I myself am a huge admirer of the choices because that is what makes an actor," said Kareena. The actress reently made her digital debut with Sujoy Ghosh's 'Jaane Jaan' also starring Jaideep Ahlawat and Vijay Varma.
She further added, "I know that she (Alia) adores me, and it’s a very mutual thing because I truly think that she is the best in this generation. We met recently and said that we should definitely do something together. Let’s see how that energy kind of bounces off. I know because our picture went viral, and everyone started messaging Karan Johar. He said, ‘Why is everyone messaging me?’ So I told him that the onus is on him.”
Kareena Kapoor will next be seen in Hansal Mehta's direcorial venture 'The Buckingham Murders', that premiered at the London Film Festival, recently.
Meanwhile, Alia Bhatt is currently shooting for Vasan Bala's 'Jigra.'
