Her Name Is Derived From A Book
Her name was derived from the book Anna Karenina, which her mother read while she was pregnant with her. But her family and close friends call her Bebo.
She Was To Debut In Kaho Na Pyaar Hai
Kapoor opted out of Kaho Na Pyaar Hai. Her loss proved to be Ameesha Patel’s gain. Jr. Roshan and Patel became overnight stars but Refugee didn’t too well at the box-office.
Catfight
She’s not a fan of Bipasha Basu either and their rivalry dates back to Ajnabee days. The fight peaked when the Kapoor lad called Basu a “kaali billi”, alluding to her dusky complexion. Ouch!
Size-Zero Trend
In 2008, Bebo started the size-zero trend in Bollywood. Even at her thinnest 48kgs, she was not waif-like but showcased her new-found body in skimpy outfits in Tashan.
A Secret Affair
On paper, she is known to have dated only two men: Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor. But rumour has it that her affair with Hrithik Roshan is the industry’s well-kept secret. Sssh…
