After Sudhir Mishra made Kareena Kapoor go through rehearsals and some solid background work for her role in ‘Chameli’ director Madhur Bhandarkar has come up with a unique idea to gear up Kareena for her role in “Heroine”.

Madhur has chosen four legendry Hollywood beauties, Eva Gardner, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe and Vivien Leigh, and has roped in their lives in a three hour documentary for Kareena’s reference. However, he couldn’t get enough visual material on the classical Indian screen beauties to put into the documentary for Kareena’s reference.

“When I set out to put together a documentary chronicling the lives of the screen legends I was also simultaneously enhancing my own knowledge of them to make Kareena’s character of Mahi Khanna more rounded complete and contemporary,” Bhandarkar said adding, “For example, take Vivien Leigh. Her stormy relationship with Sir Laurence Olivier is so eventful, dramatic, passionate and romantic. Unfortunately there’s no valid and substantial footage on Madhubala or Meena Kumari revealing their relationship with Kishore Kumar and Kamal Amrohi respectively. I do want Kareena to refer back to our great actresses like Madhubala, Nargis and Nutan. But I can only brief her verbally on our screen legends. It’s really sad.”

However, Kareena will be able to see the documentary only when she’s free in September-October as she is shooting for ‘Ra.1′ and ‘Golmaal 3′ now.
