Kareena's Rickshaw Ride | DesPardes.com

April 5: These days Kareena Kapoor is in Lucknow shooting for Vishal Bhardwaj's "Othello" that has Ajay Devgan, Saif Ali Khan and Vivek Oberoi as well. Kareena is part of the 150-member cast and crew that has landed in India's most populous state capital for over a fortnight shooting schedule.

"To shoot Kareena riding a hand-pulled rickshaw in the middle of the chaotic traffic of Lucknow is an experience of a rare kind," says Vishal Bhardwaj, the director of the movie.

"The shooting was done in the crowded Imambara locality of the city and the entire area was cordoned off for an hour but in spite tight security, there was a huge crowed. We were fortunate that every thing went well," said Vishal.

For Kareena, it was her first ride on a rickshaw and the Bollywood star was visibly ecstatic '' I have never been on a rickshaw before' this is my first experience of this roller coaster, " the starlet said.

The "Othello" team moves from Lucknow to Allahabad to shoot the coronation sequence in a temple situated in the middle of a river. Hope Kareena may have a boat ride this time and yet another experience in Uttar Pradesh(UP).

Priyanka replaces Kareena in 'Love Story 2050'

April 5: Priyanka Chopra has replaced Kareena Kapoor in "Love Story 2050." Priyanka who replaced Kareena at the eleventh hour said, " It 's a fantastic script... it's a fantastic role. I get to go into two different dimensions in the same film... it's an opportunity in disguise".

The Bollywood heartthrob refutes comments that she was doing favors to her friends by doing this movie. " It's no favor to anyone except me. They are paying me my price and it's a role I'd stretch myself to do." So where is the question of favor, Priyanka asked ?

"There were bit of tight spot as far as dates were concerned but since every thing was good about it I made a bit of an adjustments. The dates are being worked out between Baweja's and my secretary," Priyanka said.

"Love Story 2050" is believed to be director Harry Baweja's son Harman Baweja's launch vehicle.
