It’s a biopic and the actress and filmmaker will soon sit for a round of narrations. Then Bebo will take a call on the film.” When quizzed Kareena about the same, the actress had neither denied nor confirmed the reports.

However, as per a recent report, Bebo had apparently rejected the film owing to scripting issues.
