Friends worried as Kareena Kapoor goes off radar

Actor Kareena Kapoor seems to have gone off radar these past few days. Not the Bollywood radar that is, but the actor had almost become inaccessible to most in these three weeks, including to her close friends and that apparently set off alarm bells as they could not get in touch with her for days at a stretch.

That’s not all, apparently the actor also made sure that no meetings or script-sessions were scheduled during the time. But according to sources, keeping her busy was her film Heroine and so involved was she in the Madhur Bhandarkar film that she’d apparently even kept her cell-phone completely switched off all through the film’s shoot.

Considering how addicted the star is to her phone, this came as quite a surprise to all close to her. “It’s impossible to see Bebo without her phone. In fact, even during the breaks in between shoots, it’s a given that she would be on her phone. She is addicted to BBMing and stays in constant touch with her friends. So it was shocking to know that she was not accessible on her cell either these past few days,” says a source.

Kareena’s extreme involvement in her film has apparently now also earned her the nickname ‘Aamir’ among friends, as they feel that she’s got as involved in her film as her Talaash co-star Aamir Khan usually does. “Not that she was any less professional before, but we think it’s the first time that she’s got so involved in a film that she’s called off all her meetings and has not even been able to catch up with her friends,” says the source.

However, an insider reveals that the actor has been busy shooting for some rather emotionally intense scenes for the film and she just didn’t want to be distracted by anything at all, including her cell-phone. “She even instructed her staff to not schedule any meetings in the time being. In fact, even the promotion rounds for Agent Vinod that releases next week will only start from today, though she did attend a conclave held in the Capital yesterday, ” adds the insider
