Recalling 2001’s biggest Bollywood catfight when Kareena Kapoor Called Bipasha Basu ‘Kaali Billi’

Kareena Kapoor and Bipasha Basu's ugly catfight moment recalled.

Ajnabee was a movie that brought together Kareena Kapoor and Bipasha Basu. The film was appreciated for the kind of intrigue value it created. However, during the filming of the film, some shocking developments actually left the makers gasping. That was to do with the leading ladies in the film, Kareena Kapoor and Bipasha Basu. There was a situation wherein Kareena and Bipasha ended up having a massive fight. All of it ended so badly that they talked about it creating bad air in the media. A report on bollywoodlife.com recalled the old incident which is even today remembered. And we take reference from that story for our write up here.

So the story goes like this. Kareena was quite upset with designer Vikram Phadnis who was assigned to her, helped Bipasha without her consent. Soon, it turned out to be a mess and Kareena went on to call Bipasha ‘Kaali Billi’. There were also some reports that claimed that Kareena even slapped Bipasha in the heat of the moment.

When Bipasha was asked about the said incident, she gave a befitting reply to Kareena in her 2001 interview to Filmfare. “I think this is a case of making a mountain out of a molehill. There were never any problems with me. She had some problems with the designer. I don’t know why I was pulled in. It was quite childish,” she had said.

Responding to Bipasha’s comments, Kareena then shared her side of the story to the magazine in 2002. “She just doesn’t seem to have any confidence in her own talent. In a four-page interview, she spoke about me for three pages. Why not talk about your work? I think her only claim to fame is that she fought with me during Ajnabee over dress designer Vikram Phadnis. She’s given statements that I called her uncharitable names. Now, that’s a figment of her imagination,” she had said.

Aww!! This one was huge!!
