Kareena vs Katrina for KJo's next

 It was earlier reported that Karan Johar and Ekta Kapoor were coming together to make a love story with a twist and would cast the lead pair soon.

The film's leading lady is supposed to be a strong and sexy character, and both KJo and Ekta want a top actress. But there's a hitch. While Ekta is convinced that Katrina Kaif is best suited for the role, Karan feels the role needs a performer and wants to cast Kareena Kapoor for the same. Kareena has worked in many films under Karan's banner. He makes no bones about his fondness for her. At a recent event he said, "Kareena is the in-house heroine for us. Period! Everyone at Dharma is pretty much in sync with that, and that was the case with "Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu" as well. When it comes to her, the role has to be really interesting, meaty and challenging."

While Ekta respects Karan's judgement and his friendship with Bebo, she is not sentimental enough to ignore the box office. She feels Katrina works a certain magic with her luck factor, and for Ekta, that is important. Besides, she has already signed Kareena for the sequel of "Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai" with Akshay Kumar, so naturally she wants to cast Kat for this one. The decision will be taken soon. Both the producers will sit together and figure out which actress works best, and who has the dates to give them for their joint production.
