Kareena Kapoor is all set to the official FIFA World Cup music video. She will be seen in a unique video for the event along with Hollywood stars such as Matt Damon, Jessica Alba and Kevin Spacey.
Even though the actress is yet to go on record about her big- ticket project, the buzz suggests her talks with FIFA officials are in the final stages.
“ Yes, Kareena is doing the FIFA video but it is too early to divulge details because things are still being finalised,” said a source close to the actress.
The source added Kareena had previously informed the producers of her current assignments that she would need a break for the video.
Right now, she is busy wrapping up Rohit Shetty’s Golmaal 3 in Goa.
She is also shooting for Karan Johar’s remake of Stepmom and Shah Rukh Khan’s Ra. One , after which she will start work on Madhur Bhandarkar’s Heroine . Reports suggest the video will be shot in the first week of June.
Kareena is therefore working out her dates and finalising the costumes she will wear.
This is Kareena’s first shot at football, but her co- stars in the video, Jessica and Matt, have had their brush with sports.
While Matt played a South African rugby star in Clint Eastwood’s Invictus , Jessica recently visited the Soccer City stadium in Johannesburg as part of a promotional event for the upcoming World Cup.
“ Not only is this going to be a tournament to remember, but the lasting legacy of this World Cup will be education for all,” said Jessica, referring to efforts by 1GOAL, a group that campaigns for education for all.
Kareena apart, Bollywood music originator duo Salim- Sulaiman will be composing an original song that they will perform at the opening and closing ceremonies of football’s biggest extravaganza. The World Cup will take place in South Africa from June 11 to July 11.
Coming back to Kareena, she has decided not to sign any new film this year because she wants to focus on playing an actress in Bhandarkar’s Heroine . Right now, she is doing research for the role by studying closely the works of several famous actresses.
Besides Hollywood greats such as Ava Gardner, Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe, Kareena is also studying the films of Madhubala, Nutan and her mother Babita.
Kareena wants to dedicate Heroine to the yesteryear Indian divas.
