After Prince William and Kate Middleton royal
wedding in the West, B-Town is now eagerly awaiting the
wedding of it’s own
Bollywood royalty — that of actress
Kareena Kapoor and actor
Saif Ali Khan. And while the guessing game of when the two will finally tie the knot continues, we get Kapoor herself to set the record straight. “I might get married tomorrow if I feel like it. But no, it’s not happening any time soon,” she clarifies. “
Saif’s heart and soul is in Agent Vinod and that’s his priority at the moment. So, we’ll see once we’re done with that. I definitely see us going down that way, but what’s the rush?” she quips.
The actress herself is busy with her own biggies this year with the five Khans in the industry —
Shah Rukh,
Salman,
Saif, Aamir and Imran — but she says that as the highest paid actress, her numero uno status has nothing to do with her choice not to get married at this high point in her career. “First of all, I don’t take the number one tag too seriously. I could well rank at number 100, but I would still marry when I want to. My career has nothing to do with my decision to get married,” she asserts.
But won’t she need time off from her hectic schedules for a lavish wedding affair? “No, I don’t want a very lavish wedding. I’d love a small private affair with family and close friends. So, if I really want to get married, I might just take two days off and do it,” she smiles.
But as of now even stealing those two days with beau Saif Ali Khan seems to be difficult for the actress. She’s shooting back-to-back, first with Salman for Bodyguard and then with Aamir for Reema Kagti’s film apart from juggling her shoots for the commercials, while Saif Ali Khan is away in Vietnam perfecting his martial arts. “Yes, it will be a long while before we manage even those two days off,” she laughs. But the actress says she’s not complaining. “To be working with the best in the industry, would any actor ever complain.”
Buzz is that despite the rivalry that Khan camps share, apparently, they all have been generous when it comes to adjusting their dates for her. “I don’t know about camps. But when it comes to our profession, we are all actors first and that’s all that matters,” she signs off.
