Katrina and Kareena strike up friendship

Those who thought that two successful Bollywood actresses of equal stature can’t be friends might just have to eat crow.KareenaKapoor and Katrina Kaif have always been pitted against each other for reasons partly inexplicable. True, Kareena is amongst the talented lot in Bollywood, while Katrina has struck fame by dint of her looks and by hitching her wagon to a star Akshay Kumar. And with Kareena’s lack of diplomacy in expressing her disdain for “expressionless” actors, it was always taken for granted that Bebo has the same opinion about Salman’s babe.

But surprise, surprise, surprise! The two divas are turning out to be chums.

It’s not that the two ladies bonded because the occasion was celebratory. Bebo and Kat bonded like two chirpy sahelis at the wedding of Amrita Arora and Shakeel Ladak recently. The two ladies just yapped away for hours, much to the surprise of everyone, most of all their beaus – Saif Ali Khan and Salman Khan – both of who must have felt ignored.

Kareena, on the other hand, calls Kat “a sweetheart…who is true to herself”.And we thought two top actresses could only bitch about each other!
