Kareena's first Karva Chauth for beau Saif

She may be actively promoting her next Golmaal 3 but that didn't stop Kareena Kapoor from observing her first Karva Chauth for beau Saif Ali Khan. Although this fast is normally observed by married women, it has gained popularity among single girls in recent years. The actress has been staying at Pataudi, (she was there to attend a polo event on Sunday but stayed back) in Saif's ancestral home.
On Tuesday morning, she drove to Delhi to join the G3 team, who'd flown in from Mumbai. She was back by Saif's side by 8.30 in the night, after completing all her work commitments.
Bebo had committed to attending the Delhi event on October 26, with Ajay Devgn, Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Shreyas Talpade and Kunal Khemu, a long while ago. As the day drew closer, it strucks her that it coincided with Karva Chauth, but it was too late to cancel or change the date.
She realised that it was going to be difficult to stay without food and water on a day when she had to be on her feet all day, but not fasting was not an option. She was keen to do the traditional fast and puja for Saif. She couldn't go through with it last year even though she intended to, as she was unwell and under medication.
It was taxing however, as she rushed from studio to studio for media interactions and promotion for Golmaal 3, with the rest of the cast, without a drop of water or bite to eat. Most women who fast, take it easy, but Bebo had little choice.
