You seldom hear the rosy-cheeked Katrina Kaif and the ultra-attractive Kareena Kapoor talk about each other, giving the impression that they hardly care or have the time to indulge in such frivolities. Not so.

Recently, while shooting for an item number, Halkat Jawani, for one of her forthcoming films, Heroine, Kareena Kapoor instructed the choreographer Ganesh Hegde that it had to be better than Chikni Chameli (a hit item number that feature Katrina K and choreographed by the same dance director). When a journalist probed Ganesh H, he said people had no idea how much rivalry there was between the two Ks.

Well, come to think of it, people do have an idea how catty Bollywood heroines can get.
