Mumbai, May 21: Whether it’s her stunning svelte figure or romantic liaisons with Saif, Kareena is one such B-town chick who knows how to hog all the limelight. Riding on the wave of stardom, the lissome actress is leaving no stone unturned to ensure she becomes the reigning queen of Bollywood. According to the latest Bollywood gossip, news has it that Kareena has pipped bong babe Bipasha in learning belly dancing. It is believed that Bipasha has been vocal on her wish to learn belly dancing, a desire which never materialised. It’s lucky Kareena who is learning belly dancing for an international film awards event that is scheduled to take place next month in Macau. According to a close source, "Though Bips proclaimed that she was learning belly dancing, she didn`t have time to learn it before she left for the shoot of ‘All The Best’ though she did learn swimming and driving. Now, Kareena will be one up on her as she`s taking belly-dancing lessons from Shiamak Davar, who is also choreographing her act. Bebo starts her lessons from tomorrow after returning from Hyderabad." Divulging on the nitty-gritty, the source maintained, "Apart from the fact that Bebo`s being paid a whopper she is easily the highest-paid actress in the show line-up. Kareena is pulling out all the stops for her act. It`s an all-out ‘Billu’ act with a Turkish-Arabian feel. Manish Malhotra is designing her outfits. In one of the songs, she will be dressed like an Arabian princess with gold harem pants made of silk, satin and lace. Kareena will perform to Marjaani from ‘Billu’. Today she goes to perform for a show, comes back tomorrow, shoots for a jewellery ad shoot and in the evening starts her belly-dancing classes." When asked Kareena, the actress confirmed, "I`m performing at the awards this year and am taking belly dancing classes for my act. This will be the first awards event I perform at this year. I`ve become very choosy about where I perform. I am performing at this particular award show as it gives me an international standing. Also, this awards event celebrates its 10th year and this is the third consecutive year I will be performing for them." When enquired whether she will be performing for Saif? "Well he`s attending the awards as he`s having a press show for his home production ‘Love Aaj Kal’, so he better be watching my act!,” said the actress.
